German.png German text

O Mensch, bewein dein Sünde gross,
darum Christus seins Vaters Schoss
verliess und kam auf Erden.

Von einer Jungfrau rein und zart
für uns er hier geboren war:
er wollt der Mittler werden.

Den Toten er das Leben gab,
und legt dabei all Krankheit ab!
Bis sich die Zeit herdrange

daß er für uns geopfert würd
trug unser Sünd ein schwere Bürd
wohl an dem Kreuze lange.
Sebald Heyden
 

English.png English translation

O man, thy grievous sin bemoan,
For which Christ left His Father's throne,
From highest heaven descending.

Of Virgin pure and undefiled
He here was born, our Saviour mild,
For sin to make atonement.

The dead He raised to life again.
The sick He freed from grief and pain.
Until the time appointed

That He for us should give His Blood,
Should bear our sins' o'erwhelming load,
The shameful Cross enduring.
tr. Catherine Winkworth
