For his last journey the pious prince made precise arrangements: Trusting firmly in Luther's teaching that only God's word can make you blessed, he had his sarcophagus decorated with 25 Bible verses and lines from hymns, especially referring to the hymn of Simeon Lord, "Now let your servant go in peace. The order for the funeral music was given to Heinrich Schütz, who used these sayings to create a spiritual funeral concert that united dignity, hope and comfort. And when Heinrich Posthumus was carried to his tomb, the choir in the church intoned the hymn of praise of Simeon, while at the same time a second choir greeted the coffin on his arrival at the tomb with the motet Selig sind die Toten.
Thus the mourners could trust that Heinrich Posthumus would rise from the dead as his Saviour once did. Heinrich Schütz had set the resurrection of Jesus twelve years earlier to no less impressive Easter music.
