"Meine Seele, dank und singe" ("My soul, thank and sing") is a German Catholic hymn. A first version appeared in Dillingen in 1807, to a 1741 melody from Cologne. Some hymnals have the beginning "Meine Seele, auf und singe". It is part of regional sections of the German Catholic hymnal Gotteslob of 2013. The diocese of Trier has three stanzas as GL 802.[1] The Diocese of Limburg has the first and the third stanza as GL 743 as an Advent song.[2]
