70. O Lamb of God most holy!

1 O Lamb of God most holy!
Who on the Cross didst suffer,
And patient still and lowly,
Thyself to scorn didst offer;
Our sins by thee were taken,
Or hope had us forsaken:
Have mercy on us, Jesus!

2 O Lamb of God most holy!
Who on the Cross didst suffer,
And patient still and lowly,
Thyself to scorn didst offer;
Our sins by thee were taken,
Or hope had us forsaken:
Have mercy on us, Jesus!

3 O Lamb of God most holy!
Who on the Cross didst suffer,
And patient still and lowly,
Thyself to scorn didst offer;
Our sins by thee were taken,
Or hope had us forsaken:
Thy peace be with us, Jesus!

Amen.
