I. CHORAL, SATB: 'Ach, lieben Christen, seid getrost'
[Oboe I/II, Violino I/II, Viola, Corno col Soprano, Continuo]
Ach, lieben Christen, seid getrost,
Wie tut ihr so verzagen!
Weil uns der Herr heimsuchen tut,
Lasst uns von Herzen sagen:
Die Straf wir wohl verdienet han,
Solchs muss bekennen jedermann,
Niemand darf sich ausschließen.
