"Macht hoch die Tür" (TLH #73b)


There are three tunes for "Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates" in The Lutheran Hymnal.  This is the second.  I skipt the first because part of it is in 4/4 and part of it is in 3/4 and I don't know how to set my click track to accommodate that, and I'll probably skip the third because it's in Ab major and I'm disinclined to transpose it.  Confusingly, all three tunes are titled "Macht hoch die Tür."
