"A setting for Mezzo-soprano soloist and accompanying choir, of verses from a translation of Martin Luther's hymn ‘Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her’ by the brothers James, John & Robert Wedderburn, published by them in 1567, in 'Ane Compendious Buik of Godly and Spiritualt Sangis.' Although the words are in 16th century lowland Scottish (aka Lallands), there is no need to sing the solo in a Scottish accent: modern southern English pronunciation is fine."

O my deir hart, yung Jesus sweit prepair thy creddill in my spreit And I sall rock thee in my hart and never mair fra thee depart. Bot I sall praise thee evermoir with sangis sweit unto thy gloir The kneis of my hart sall I bow and sing that rycht Balulalow.
