232. Kyrie

You raise the dead to life in the Spirit:
Lord, have mercy, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy, have mercy on us.

You bring pardon and peace to the sinner:
Christ, have mercy, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy, have mercy on us.

You bring pardon and peace to the sinner:
Christe eleison, Christe eleison.
Christe eleison, Christe eleison.
Christe eleison, Christe eleison.

You bring light to those in darkness:
Lord, have mercy, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy, have mercy on us.

You raise the dead to life in the Spirit:
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison.
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison.

You bring pardon and peace to the sinner:
Christe eleison, Christe eleison.
Christe eleison, Christe eleison.

You bring light to those in darkness:
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison.
Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison.
