	Charming and cheerful setting of an Advent chorale. Reference to the Morningstar in the text makes this also appropriate for Epiphany. With the original chorale sounded forth and arranged for Flute, English Horn, Bassoon and Cello.
	Story Behind the Song Part of an effort to transcribe the Liturgical Year for sampled instruments. Lyrics German: Herr Christ, der ein'ge Gottes Sohn, Vaters in Ewigkeit Aus seinem Herz'n entsprossen, Gleich wie geschrieben steht, Er ist der Morgensterne, Sein'n Glanz streckt er so ferne Vor andern Sternen klar. --Elisabeth Creutziger, 1524 English: O Thou, of God the Father, The true Eternal Son, Of whom 'tis surely written, That Thou with Him art one, Thou art the bright and morning star, Beyond all other radiance Thy glory streams afar. --Tr. C. Winkworth
