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. |
