Cantata No. 116, Du Friedenfurst 
Cantata No. 60, 0 Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort 
There is evidence to suggest that Cantata 
No. 116 is the last of the Church Cantatas in order of composition. It is thought to have been written in 1744, following the Prussian invasion, and the deep feeling of sorrow which runs through much of the music is held to have been expressive of the sufferings caused by the war. 
Cantata No. 60 takes a form different from most of the others. It consists, for the most part, of a duet between Fear and Hope, who may be represented by solo voices  (alto and tenor respectively), or by the full choir. Both sing of approaching death, and while Fear dreads it, Hope goes forward with confidence. The voice of the Holy Ghost, however, changes Fear's forebodings to a feeling of joy. A choral,  It is enough,' closes the cantata.
