Macht hoch die Tür was written by Georg Weissel, in 1623 for the inauguration of the Altroßgärter Church in Königsberg. It is a German Advent hymn whose text draws on Psalm 24; it was first printed in 1642 with a setting by Johann Stobäus, while the familiar melody appeared in Johann Anastasius Freylinghausen’s 1704 hymnal. The hymn is listed as No. 1 in the Evangelisches Gesangbuch and remains widely used to open Advent and the liturgical year in Protestant, Catholic, and other Christian communities.
