ALT1: ... that for Bach's chorale cantata Wo Gott der Herr nicht bei uns hält, BWV 178, an unknown poet kept the original wording in six of eight stanzas of the hymn by Justus Jonas (pictured)?

ALT2: ... an unknown poet added opposition to rationalism to the hymn by Justus Jonas (pictured), when he wrote the text for Bach's chorale cantata Wo Gott der Herr nicht bei uns hält, BWV 178? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:15, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Creation date, length, image copyright, citation of hook(s) and article in general checks out. I've tweaked the part about rationalism, since the original section was a bit hard to understand on the first go. Other than that, nice article! Constantine ✍ 02:00, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
