Is there a version of the German lyrics singable in the hymnal arrangement? I have the English and Chinese hymnal lyrics and desire to have the hymnal singable in German. Please help. Thanks.

Would you please email to if possible? THANKS!

Thanks for the lyrics

The original Schiller poem 'ode to joy' was set to is AWESOME, my favorite translation of the first verse is like:
"Joy, glorious spark of gods, daughter of Elysium - Here we enter drunk with fire, Heaven high thy sanctuary - Thy magic power binds us together, we who swords have sundered so - Beggars are made Prince's brothers, where thy gentle wing abides."

I love that song! it's so nice.

Here are several more hymns which are sung to the tune of "Ode to Joy":

God Hath Spoken by His Prophets

Sing to God New Songs of Worship

Fill Your Hearts with Joy and Gladness

Glory Be to God in Heaven

When the Light of First Creation

Christ is Risen, Shout Hosanna

Sing With All the Sons of Glory

Yes, the original poster had asked about the hymn set to Beethoven's music.

In case anyone's looking, the German lyrics can be found here:
