Johann Sebastian Bach composed the church cantata Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan (What God does is well done),[1] BWV 98, in Leipzig for the 21st Sunday after Trinity and first performed it on 10 November 1726.

This final movement is not a chorale, although its text begins like one, Christian Keymann's "Meinen Jesum laß ich nicht" (1658).

[6] In the opening chorus, the mostly homophonic setting of the voices, with the oboes playing colla parte, is complemented by strings dominated by the first violin as an obbligato instrument rather than an independent orchestral concerto.

[4] The second aria is the final movement, dominated by the violins in unison in a similar structure as the first, two vocal sections framed by repeats of a ritornello.

[4] Bach hints at the regular closing chorale by beginning the vocal part with an embellished version of the first line of the hymn "Meinen Jesum laß ich nicht" on a melody by Andreas Hammerschmidt[7] on the same words as the cantata text.
