- The first stanza of this Lutheran Chorale/Hymn translates as -
God is my comfort and my help
My hope and my salvation,
He has redeemed me with his blood,
He is my strong foundation,
And so with confidence I go
For this, dear God, I know:
That he will not forsake his own.
This appears to be the only time Bach used this chorale although it is listed in 'Orgelbuchlein' among the chorales for which he never wrote a prelude for this collection.
The Neumeister Collection is a compilation of 82 chorale preludes found in a manuscript copy produced by Johann Gottfried Neumeister (1757-1840). When the manuscript was rediscovered at Yale University in the 1980s it appeared to contain 31 previously unknown early chorale settings by Johann Sebastian Bach, which were added to the BWV catalogue as Nos. 1090-1120, and published in 1985.
The rediscovered manuscript prompted revisions to J. S. Bach's catalogue and reconsideration of his musical development. The collection contains 40 chorales with a BWV number.
Nine chorales were listed in the 1950 first edition of the Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis: BWV 601, 639, 714, 719, 723, 737, 742, 751 and 957.
31 chorales, BWV 1090-1120, were assigned a number in the 1990 second edition of the catalogue.
All these are regarded as being very early works .
