O sacred Head, now wounded, with grief and shame weighed down Now scornfully surrounded with thorns, Thine only crown How pale Thou art with anguish, with sore abuse and scorn! How does that visage languish, which once was bright as morn! What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered, was all for sinners' gain Mine, mine was the transgression, but Thine the deadly pain Lo, here I fall, my Savior! 'Tis I deserve Thy place Look on me with Thy favor, vouchsafe to me Thy grace Men mock and taunt and jeer Thee, Thou noble countenance Though mighty worlds shall fear Thee and flee before Thy glance How art thou pale with anguish, with sore abuse and scorn! How doth Thy visage languish that once was bright as morn! Now from Thy cheeks has vanished their color once so fair From Thy red lips is banished the splendor that was there Grim death, with cruel rigor, hath robbed Thee of Thy life Thus Thou hast lost Thy vigor, Thy strength in this sad strife My burden in Thy Passion, Lord, Thou hast borne for me For it was my transgression which brought this woe on Thee I cast me down before Thee, wrath were my rightful lot Have mercy, I implore Thee; Redeemer, spurn me not! What language shall I borrow to thank Thee, dearest friend For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? O make me Thine forever, and should I fainting be Lord, let me never, never outlive my love to Thee My Shepherd, now receive me; my Guardian, own me Thine Great blessings Thou didst give me, O source of gifts divine Thy lips have often fed me with words of truth and love Thy Spirit oft hath led me to heavenly joys above Here I will stand beside Thee, from Thee I will not part O Savior, do not chide me! When breaks Thy loving heart When soul and body languish in death's cold, cruel grasp Then, in Thy deepest anguish, Thee in mine arms I'll clasp The joy can never be spoken, above all joys beside When in Thy body broken I thus with safety hide O Lord of Life, desiring Thy glory now to see Beside Thy cross expiring, I'd breathe my soul to Thee My Savior, be Thou near me when death is at my door Then let Thy presence cheer me, forsake me nevermore! When soul and body languish, oh, leave me not alone But take away mine anguish by virtue of Thine own! Be Thou my consolation, my shield when I must die Remind me of Thy passion when my last hour draws nigh Mine eyes shall then behold Thee, upon Thy cross shall dwell My heart by faith enfolds Thee. Who dieth thus dies well
