My heart that glows and bleeds my wounded side | B |
My hurt feet that the Magdalene wet eyed | B |
Clasps kneeling and my tortured arms outspread | B |

To bear thy sins Look on the cross stained red | B |
The nails the sponge that all thy soul shall guide | B |
To love on earth where flesh thrones in its pride | B |
My Body and Blood alone thy Wine and Bread | B |

And with thine agony sobbed out my breath | C |
Hath not thy nightly sweat bedewed my brow | D |
O lamentable friend that seek'st me now | D |
