Ach! unsre Sünde bringt Dich an das Kreuz hinan! O unbeflecktes Lamm! Was hast du sonst getan? 3 Doch deine herzenslieb Erweiset unserm Herzen, Wie Lieb wir dir gewest. Dein Leiden, Tod und Schmerzen Hat nun versöhnet Gott Den Vater mit der Welt, Uns seine Gnade bracht, Zufrieden ihn gestellt. 4 Dein Kampf ist unser Sieg, Dein Tod ist unser Leben, In deinen Banden ist Die Freiheit uns gegeben, Dein Kreuz ist unser Trost, Die Wunden unser Heil, Dein Blut das Lösegeld, Der armen Sonder Teil. 5 O hilf! daß wir ach uns Zum Kampf und Leiden wagen, Und unter unsrer Last Des Kreuzes nicht verzagen. Hilf tragen mit Geduld, Durch deine Dornenkron’, Wenn’s kommen soll mit uns Zum Blute, Schmach und Hohn. 6 Dein Schweiß komm uns zu gut, Wenn wir im Schweiße liegen: Durch deinen Todeskampf Laß uns im Tode siegen: Durch deine Banden, Herr! Bind uns, wie dir’s gefällt, Hilf! daß wir kreuzigen Durch dein Kreuz, Fleisch und Welt. 7 Laß deine Wunden sein Die Heilung unsrer Sonden, Laß uns auf deinen Tod Den Trost im Tode gründen. O Jesu, laß an uns, Durch dein Kreuz, Tod und Pein, Dein Leiden, Kreuz und Angst Ja nicht verloren sein. Used With Tune: NUN DANKET

We bless Thy tender care That led our wayward feet, Past every fatal snare, To streams and pastures sweet. 3 We bless Thy Son, who bore The cross, for sinners dying; Thy Spirit we adore, The precious blood applying. Let work and worship send their incense unto Thee, Till song and service blend, Beside the crystal sea.
