Danket, danket dem Herrn (original) (raw)

"Danket, danket dem Herrn" (Thank the Lord) is a Christian hymn in German. The short text is taken from psalms. The music is traditional, from the 18th century. It is a round, often used for grace after meals, but also used for other occasions of thanksgiving. The song is included in German Protestant and Catholic hymnals and many songbooks, and is considered to be among the most widespread rounds in German.
