Komm, Jesu, komm, mein Leib ist müde,
die Kraft verschwind’t je mehr und mehr,
ich sehne mich nach deinem Friede;
der saure Weg wird mir zu schwer!
Komm, komm, ich will mich dir ergeben;
du bist der rechte Weg, die Wahrheit und das Leben.
Drum schließ ich mich in deine Hände
und sage, Welt, zu guter Nacht!
Eilt gleich mein Lebenslauf zu Ende,
ist doch der Geist wohl angebracht.
Er soll bei seinem Schöpfer schweben,
weil Jesus ist und bleibt der wahre Weg zum Leben.
[Text by Paul Thymich, 1656-1694]

Come, Jesus, come, my body is weary,
my strength deserts me more and more,
I yearn for thy peace;
life’s bitter path is too much for me!
Come, come, I will surrender myself to thee,
thou art the right Way, the Truth and the Life.
And so I place myself in thy hands
and bid thee, world, farewell!
Though the sands of my life are running out,
the spirit is ready.
It shall hover before its maker,
for Jesus is and remains the true way to life.

Amen.
Amen 🙏
Come Jesus come
Such emotive & beautiful singing of this lovely Bach work. The emotions contained in the lyrics were perfecly captured by these magnificent singers. Bravo Nigel Short & the Tenebrae choir. 🥲🎶👏
Thank you for this beautiful music. Amen, come Lord Jesus.
Having had the immense privilege to hear Tenebrae in person recently, I urge all listeners to avail themselves to do the same if any opportunity presents itself. The recording is spectacular but cannot convey they tangible power of their voices once the listener occupies the same physical space. This ensemble is surely one of the most radiant jewels of our time.
Tonight in Groningen!
Thank you so much for your support! It really means a lot to us!
I agree. Having finally heard Tenebrae live at Rocamadour festival last summer.... The whole air vibrates, and takes you up! Absolutely etherial.
تكون قاعد بغرفتك وفجأة تجد نفسك بالفردوس الاعلى
Wunderschön, vielen Dank an Tenebrae Choir!
Bach + Tenebrae = heaven

Quelle perfection ! Exceptionnel. Merci infiniment Tenebrae Choir.
Utterly sublime. I have always loved JSB's astonishing music, unbeliever that I am. I can't resist it!
Großartig, nahezu himmlisch!

바흐 합창음악의 정수을 노래합니다
세상에 이처럼 심오하고 아름다운
곡이 또 있을까요~?
과연 하나님의 나라가
우리를 기다리고 있음을
확신합니다~아멘
bravo !
Wie immer. Perfekt.😂
Best performance of this masterpiece I’ve ever heard. Exceptional singing.
No way. No Bach's performance 'single per voice' may be the best :)
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
this rocks!! thank you
So beautiful, thanks
Magnífico!
Дуже гарно!
Prekrasno❤❤❤
Wow
I've never cared much for Bach, but this piece is beautiful, and Tenebrae made it so much more gorgeous. You nailed it again, Tenebrae! Well done!
Бах он очень разный и нужно уметь его услышать. Не всегда это удается с первого раза
I confess Bach has never been my favorite composer, but I must admit his music can be mesmerizing. It sucks you in, and you feel that it could go on forever. Another masterful performance by Tenebrae!
U-Tube interrupted this magnificent performance for Spencer the Celebrity Chef. Ruined.
Beautiful choir, exquisite actually, but I think your sound engineer has some deafness at about 1.5 khz. This recording will about take off your head at that frequency.
