  Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir (We thank you, God, we thank you) is a cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach.
The piece was written for the occasion of the election of a new town council in Leipzig in 1731 (the cantatas number 119, Preise Jerusalem, den Herrn, and 120, Gott, man lobet dich in der Stille, were written for a similar occasion).
This was later adapted as the Gratias and Dona Nobis of Bach's Mass in B minor.

The first of them (Gott ist mein Kdnig BWV 71) is the only cantata we know that was published during Bach's lifetime (1708), while we do not even know the literary incipit of the second, although it was printed by the local publisher Tobias David Brückner in 1709.
The installation of 1731 (27 August) was greeted by the cantata Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir (BWV 29).
The subject of this week’s discussion (February 16, 2003) is the Cantata for Inauguration of the Leipzig Town Council BWV 29 ‘Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir’ (We thank you, God, we thank you).
