Lasst uns erfreuen-La mélodie du cantique Lasst uns erfreuen est connue par toutes les communautés chrétiennes. Elle fut publiée pour la première fois dans le recueil Geistliche Kirchengesäng imprimé à Cologne en 1623. La mélodie est attribuée à un compositeur anonyme.Dans les pays anglophones cette mélodie est chantée sur le texte All creatures of our God and King (Vous créatures du Seigneur) inspiré du chant de louange Cantico di fratre sole (Cantique du frère Soleil ou Cantique des créatures) de Saint François d Assise. Rédigé en 1226 au terme de sa vie il faudra attendre quatre cents ans pour que le cantique de Saint François d Assise soit publié. Latraduction anglaise a été réalisée par William Henry Draper (1855-1933) à l occasion d un grand rassemblement de jeunes pour la Pentecôte à Leeds. L hymne fut ensuite intégrée dans la seconde édition du recueil Public School Hymn Book (1919).Cet arrangement de Philip Sparke développe trois strophes contrastantes. Let Us Rejoice! est une œuvre de concert à part entière mais peut également servir d interlude dans le cadre d une célébration de Pâques ou de Pentecôte.
