"Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten" (#187b)


Although this tune is listed under the title "Wer nur den lieben Gott lässt walten," it's actually much closer to "Winchester New."

"Ich heb' mein' Augen sehnlich auf" (#185)


Perhaps just coincidentally, there's some resemblance between the title of this tune and part of Psalm 121:1:  "Ich hebe meine Augen auf zu den Bergen."

8' only

"Trau auf Gott in allen Sachen" (#182a)


If the title is what's sung to the first musical phrase, the words "allen Sachen" are sung to notes of all different pitches (spanning a fifth:  B A G E), giving a sense of the entirety of "allen."

16' and 8'

"Gott ist mein Heil" (#180)


There are two titles in the Register that start with "Gott ist mein Heil":  "Gott ist mein Heil, Glück" and "Gott ist mein Heil, mein Hülf'."  I'm not sure which this is.

"Herr Jesu Christ, ich weiß gar wohl" (#175b)


There are two titles in the Register that start this way:  "Herr Jesu Christ, ich weiß gar wohl, daß ich einmal" and "Herr Jesu Christ, ich weiß gar wohl, daß ich von."  I don't know which one this is.

16', 8', and 4'

"Sag', was hilft alle Welt" (#167)


I'm assuming that the title is what's sung to the first musical phrase.  If this is the case, the phrase "alle Welt" is sung to notes of all different pitches (F# G A), giving a sense of that breadth, especially since one note is an accidental.
