Deinem Heiland, deinem Lehrer

Franz Xaver Riedel [de], an Austrian Jesuit, wrote the text of "Deinem Heiland, deinem Lehrer" in 1773 as a paraphrase of the Latin Lauda Sion, a sequence for the Feast of Corpus Christi by Thomas Aquinas in 12 stanzas. The melody is from Salzburg, sometimes attributed to Michael Haydn.^[1] The song is still used as a processional hymn for the feast.^[1] It has appeared in regional sections of the German hymnal Gotteslob,^[2] such as in the Diocese of Cologne as GL 844,^[3] and in the Diocese of Limburg as GL 866, in four stanzas, with the third stanza edited by Maria Luise Thurmair^[1] It is also part of other collections.^[4]
