"Lobpreiset all zu dieser Zeit" (Praise all at this time) is a Christian hymn in German for a new year with text by Heinrich Bone written in 1851. It is contained in the Catholic hymnal Gotteslob. It is sung to a melody that Martin Luther created in 1529.

History

"Lobpreiset all zu dieser Zeit" was written by Bone in 1851, to an older melody. There was a tendency in the Catholicism of the 19th century to fill the secular date of a new year with Christian interpretation.[1] Bone published five stanzas with a refrain in the 1851 edition of his hymnal Cantate!, in a section Das Fest der Beschneidung. Neujahr. (The feast of the Circumcision. New year.), which was distinguished then from the preceding Zum Schlusse des Jahres (For the conclusion of the year).[2]

The first two stanzas of the hymn, with a different third stanza dating to 1969,

BWV 307.[7][3] The same melody is also one of the tunes of the Christmas carol "Ich steh an deiner Krippen hier" which Bach set for four parts in his Christmas Oratorio.[8] Editor Richard Mailänder included a chorale prelude in the first volume of a 2013 collection of preludes for songs from the new Gotteslob, dedicated to Advent, Christmas and turn of the year, Choralvorspiele für Advent und Weihnachten.[9] Walter Hofmann composed a chorale prelude, included in his collection Vorpiele zu Liedern aus dem neuen Gotteslob.[10]

The song is contained in other hymnals and songbooks.[6] It is frequently sung in services connected to the turn of a year.[11]
