from Das Orgelbüchlein by Johann Sebastian Bach
Background
The text of the first verse of this chorale is translated as follows:
All people must die,
all flesh passes away like grass.
Whatever lives must perish
if it is to become new.
This body must decay
if it is to be restored
to the great glory
which is prepared for the faithful.
(Goerg Albinus)[1]
The original chorale has seven verses. Max Reger composed a famous "Phantasie" on the same chorale. Bach had originally planned two settings of this chorale for the the Orgelbüchlein, but ended up only composing the one. This setting has the words "alio modo" under the title, which means "in another way," indicating that this is the second of the two planned settings.

This setting works well with an 8' flute with 16' and 8' flutes in the pedals. Clark and Peterson suggest a registration of principal tone for the manual and pedals.[2] Another possibility is to solo out the melody. (There is no indication that it should be played on two manuals, but it is possible. Some editions even print the chorale melody in one staff with the other two manual voices together on a second staff in order to facilitate a two-manual approach.)
