After breaking off the annual cantata cycle at the end of March 1725 Bach set a series of cantata texts by the Leipzig poet Christiana Mariana von Ziegler, who maintained one of the first literary-musical salons. The large scale chorale chorus ties this work to the chorale cantatas. The central bass aria "Auf,auf, mit hellem Schall" with solo trumpet is note-worthy since in place of a middle section in the aria, here Bach employs an accompagnato recitative.

2 Recitativo (Tenore)
is my salvation grounded,
through him all evil I defy,
by him all were confounded,
and of my hope is this the sign,
that ever where we find the vine,
there, too, must be the branches.I am prepared, come, take thou me.
3 Aria (e Recitativo) (Basso)
Here in the world is trouble, pain and woe,
but there above, to Salem’s tent
will I rejoicing go.
There will I meet my God and Saviour face to face,
transfigured through his saving grace.Ring out with clarion call,
proclaim abroad to all
that Jesus Christ is risen.
How can my faith be shaken?...

Auf Christi Himmelfahrt allein
2 Recitativo (Tenore)
ich meine Nachfahrt gründe
und allen Zweifel, Angst und Pein
hiermit stets überwinde;
denn weil das Haupt im Himmel ist,
wird seine Glieder Jesus Christ
zu rechter Zeit nachholen.Ich bin bereit, komm, hole mich!
3 Aria (e Recitativo) (Basso)
Hier in der Welt
ist Jammer, Angst und Pein;
hingegen dort, in Salems Zelt,
werd ich verkläret sein.
Da seh ich Gott von Angesicht zu Angesicht,
wie mir sein heilig Wort verspricht.Auf, auf, mit hellem Schall
verkündigt überall:
Mein Jesus sitzt zur Rechten!...
