Jonathan Gardea, Tod is death and Susser is sweet in German. So tod susser= death sweet.

[@williammitchell1864]

This is a very ominous and yet beautiful piece, to play this is so comforting and relaxing, I just wish there was more to Komm Susser Tod, I wish that Bach wrote this piece longer. I want this played at my funeral visitation someday.

I'm German and it means come here sweet death

it's kinda funny how the people in the church proably do not know the name of the song and they just keep praying like nothing
