Ludvig M. Lindeman (b. 1812; d. 1887) was a Norwegian composer and organist. Born in Trondheim, he studied theology in Oslo where he remained the rest of his life. In 1839 he succeeded his brother as the organist and cantor of Oslo Cathedral, a position he held for 48 years up until his death. Lindeman was appointed Knight of the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav, and was invited to both help christen the new organ in Royal Albert Hall in London, as well as compose for the coronation of King Oscar II and Queen Sophie of Sweden. In 1883, he and his son started the Organist School in Oslo. Lindeman is perhaps best known for his arrangements of Norwegiam folk tales; over the course of his life he collected over 3000 folk melodies and tunes.… Go to person page >

Her ser jeg ne da et Lam at gaa

Her ser jeg da et Lam at gaa,
Som sig til Døden skynder,
Et taaligt Lam, som bærer paa
Al Verdens Sorg og Synder;
Til Offerstedet staar hans Hu,
Han siger: Se, her staar jeg nu
For Adams Æt at stride!
Man viser alle Piner frem;
Han svarer: Gjerne! hvert et Lam
Er færdig tl at lide.
