Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
To thee, Redeem-er,
On thy throne of glo-ry:
Lift we our weeping eyes in holy Plead-ings:
Listen O Jesu, to our suppli-ca-tions.
Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
O Thou chief Corner-stone,
Right Hand of the Fa-ther:
Way of salvation,
Gate of Life Ce-les-tial:
Cleanse thou our sinful souls from all de-file-ment
Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
God, we implore thee,
In thy glory seat-ed:
Bow down and hearken to thy weeping child-ren
Pity and pardon all our grievous
Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
Sins oft commit-ted now we lay be-fore thee:
With true contrition,
Now no more we Veil them:
Grant us, Redeemer,
Loving abso-lu-tion.
Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
Innocent, cap-tive,
Taken unre-sist-ing:
Falsely accused,
And for us sinners sen-tenced,
Save us, we pray thee,
Jesu our Re-deem-er.
Hear us, O Lord,
Have mercy upon us:
For we have sin-ned a-gainst thee.
