Possible error(s) identified. Error summary: The harmonization belongs to the chorale of BWV 57, #8; but the title and text in the score are not the proper for this particular piece. It should be "Richte dich, Liebste" instead of "Lobe den Herrn" (even though it is the title of the melody harmonized by Bach).
