Der Friede sei mit dir, BWV 158

Der Friede sei mit dir (Peace be with you) (BWV 158) is a cantata for bass soloist believed to have been composed around 1730 by Johann Sebastian Bach. Only fragments of the work survive; these were found among Bach's papers after his death. They suggest that initially there were more parts extant than simply that for bass.
