¶Liedtext

O my people, what have I done unto thee? Or wherein have I wearied thee? Testify against me. ℣ Because I brought thee forth from the land of Egypt, :thou hast prepared a cross for thy Saviour. ''Hagios O Theos.'' Holy God. ''Hagios ischyros.'' Holy and strong. ''Hagios athanatos, eleison ymas.'' Holy and immortal, have mercy upon us. ℣ Because I led thee through the desert forty years, :and fed thee with manna, :and brought thee into a land exceeding good, :thou hast prepared a cross for thy Saviour. ''Hagios…'' ℣ What more could I have done for thee, that I have not done? :I indeed did plant thee my vinyard, exceeding fair, :but thou art become very bitter unto me: :for vinegar thou gavest to quench my thirst, :and hast pierced with a spear the side of thy Saviour. ''Hagios…'' ℣ I did scourge Egypt with her first-born for thy sake: and thou hast scourged me and delivered me up. ::''After each verse, repeat'' "O my people." ℣ I led thee out of Egypt, drowning Pharoah in the Red Sea: and thou hast delivered me unto the Chief Priests. ℣ I opened the sea before thee: and thou hast opened my side with a spear. ℣ I led thee on thy way in a pillar of cloud: and thou hast led me unto the judgement hall of Pilate. ℣ I fed thee with Manna in the desert: and thou hast stricken me with blows and scourges. ℣ I gave thee to drink of the water of salvation from the rock: and thou hast given me gall and vinegar to drink. ℣ For thee I smote the kings of Canaan: and thou hast smitten my head with a reed. ℣ I gave thee a royal sceptre: and thou hast given unto my head a crown of thorns. ℣ I exalted thee with great power: and thou hast hanged me upon the gibbet of the Cross.
