German text
O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig
am Kreuzesstamm geschlachtet,
allzeit erfund'n geduldig,
wie wohl du warst verachtet.
All' Sünd hast du getragen,
sonst müßten wir verzagen.
Erbarm dich unser, o Jesu.
Gib uns deinen Fried, o Jesu.
English text
1-2. Lamb of God, pure and holy,
Who on the cross didst suffer,
Ever patient and lowly,
Thyself to scorn didst offer.
All sins Thou borest for us,
Else had despair reigned o'er us:
Have mercy on us, O, Jesus!
3. Lamb of God, pure and holy.
Who on the cross didst suffer,
Ever patient and lowly,
Thyself to scorn didst offer.
All sins Thou borest for us,
Else had despair reigned o'er us:
Thy peace be with us, O, Jesus!
