Text: Words: Martin Jahn (c.1620–82) Jesus bleibet meine Freude, Meines Herzens Trost und Saft, Jesus wehret allem Leide, Er ist meines Lebens Kraft, Meiner Augen Lust und Sonne, Meiner Seele Schatz und Wonne; Darum laß ich Jesum nicht Aus dem Herzen und Gesicht. Translation: Jesus remains my joy, My heart’s comfort and sap. Jesus obviates all misfortune, He is my life’s strength, My eye’s delight and sun, My soul’s treasure and bliss; Therefore I will not let Jesus go From my heart and sight. ​​​​​​​​ ---- VOCES8 is the no. 1 streamed classical vocal ensemble in the world.
