Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen!<br />
Was der Himmel und die Welt<br />
An Geschöpfen in sich hält,<br />

Gleichfalls itzt ein Opfer bringen,<br />
Daß er uns in Kreuz und Not<br />
Allezeit hat beigestanden.<br />

Whatever creatures are contained<br />

since He has stood with us<br />
at all times during suffering and necessity.<br />

Merilee Klemp, English horn; Mary Horozaniecki, violin<br />
James Jacobsen, cello; Sonja Thompson, harpsichord<br />
Wie selig sind doch die,<br />
die Gott im Munde tragen,<br />
Doch selger ist das Herz,<br />
das ihn im Glauben trägt!<br />
Es bleibet unbesiegt<br />
und kann die Feinde schlagen<br />
Und wird zuletzt gekrönt,<br />
wenn es den Tod erlegt.<br />
How blessed are they<br />
who carry God in their mouths,<br />
yet more blessed is the heart<br />
which carries Him in belief!<br />
It remains unconquered<br />
and can all enemies strike<br />
and will at last be crowned,<br />
when it defeats Death.<br />

About the <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong> <strong>Heritage</strong> <strong>Day</strong> Celebration. <strong>Augsburg</strong> was founded in 1869 by Norwegian Lutheran immigrants seeking<br />
to educate leaders for church and society. In the midst of a religiously diverse campus and neighborhood, <strong>Augsburg</strong> continues to be<br />
“guided by the faith and values of the Lutheran church” (Mission Statement). Since 2005, <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
has celebrated its founding by inviting notable guests to speak on subjects related to <strong>Augsburg</strong>’s roots in the<br />
Reformation of the Christian Church. <strong>Heritage</strong> <strong>Day</strong> themes are aligned with the themes of the Luther<br />
Decade initiative (www.luther2017.de). <strong>Heritage</strong> <strong>Day</strong> is a joint venture of the <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong> Center for<br />
Faith and Learning, the <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong> Music Department, the <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong> Religion Department,<br />
and the <strong>Augsburg</strong> <strong>College</strong> Office of the President.
