¶Lyrics / Text

Let thy Blood in mercy poured, let thy gracious Body broken, be to me, O gracious Lord, of thy boundless love the token. ''(Refrain:)'' Thou didst give thyself for me, now I give myself to thee. Thou didst die that I might live; blessèd Lord, thou cam’st to save me; all that love of God could give Jesus by his sorrows gave me. ''(Refrain)'' By the thorns that crowned thy brow, by the spear-wound and the nailing, by the pain and death, I now claim, O Christ, thy love unfailing. ''(Refrain)'' Wilt thou own the gift I bring? All my penitence I give thee; thou art my exalted King, of thy matchless love forgive me. ''(Refrain)''
