Texts and Translations

German.png 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.

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;
Give us thy peace, O Jesus.

O Lam van God, onschuldig
geslacht aan 't kruis der schande,
te allen tijd geduldig
bereid ten offerande,
Gij hebt de schuld gedragen,
nu is de dood verslagen.
Erbarm U onzer, o Jezus.
Geef ons uw vrede, o Jezus.
