76. O Lamb of God, most holy

1 O LAMB of God, most holy!
Who on the cross didst languish,
E'er patient, meek, and lowly,
Though mocked amid thine anguish;
Our sins thou bearest for us,
Else would despair reign o'er us;
Have mercy on us, O Jesus!

2 O Lamb of God, most holy!
Who on the cross didst languish,
E'er patient, meek, and lowly,
Though mocked amid thine anguish;
Our sins thou bearest for us,
Else would despair reign o'er us;
Have mercy on us, O Jesus!

3 O Lamb of God, most holy!
Who on the cross didst languish,
E'er patient, meek, and lowly,
Though mocked amid thine anguish;
Our sins thou bearest for us,
Else would despair reign o'er us;
Thy peace be with us, O Jesus!
