1 O dearest Lord, thy sacred head
with thorns was pierced for me;
O pour thy blessing on my head,
that I may think for thee.

2 O dearest Lord, thy sacred hands
with nails were pierced for me;
O shed thy blessing on my hands,
that they may work for thee.

3 O dearest Lord, thy sacred feet
with nails were pierced for me;
O pour thy blessing on my feet,
that they may follow thee.

4 O dearest Lord, thy sacred heart
with spear was pierced for me;
O pour thy blessings on my heart,
that I may live for thee.
