Latin text

Agnus Christus in cruce immolatur pro omnibus,
non ei adhesit Petrus qui dicebat pro te moriar,
reliquit eum Thomas qui clamabat dicens omnes cum eo moriar
et nullus ex illis, sed hic solus moritur.

Hic solus dolores nostros tulit
et languores hic solus portavit.

Venite et videte coeli Rex Christus quare pependit in cruce,
solus hic dolores nostros tulit.
