English text
- Ah! Turn me not away,
- Receive me tho' unworthy;
- Hear Thou my cry,
- Behold, Lord, my distress!
- Answer me from thy throne
- Haste Thee, Lord to mine aid,
- Thy pity shew in my deep anguish!
- Let not the sword of vengeance smite me,
- Though righteous thine anger,
- O Lord! Shield me in danger, O regard me!
- On Thee, Lord, alone will I call.
- O Divine Redeemer!
- I pray Thee, grant me pardon,
- and remember not, remember not my sins!
- Forgive me, O Divine Redeemer!
- Night gathers round my soul;
- Fearful, I cry to Thee;
- Come to mine aid, O Lord!
- Haste Thee, Lord, haste to help me!
- Hear my cry! Save me Lord in Thy mercy;
- Come and save me O Lord
- Save, in the day of retribution,
- From Death shield Thou me, O my God!
- O Divine Redeemer, have mercy!
- Help me, my Saviour!
