O, by all the pains and woes suffered once for us below,

Bending from Thy throne on high, hear our penitential cry!

Dm               G7     Dm                    Bb       C
By Thy helpless infant years, by Thy life of want and tears,

Dm              G7      Dm   A7       F     G7  A7  Dm
By Thy days of deep distress in the savage wilderness,

Bb               F           Dm               G          A7
By the dread mysterious hour of th'insulting tempter's pow'r,

Turn, O turn a fav'ring eye: hear our penitential cry!

Dm                G7    Dm                 Bb      C
By Thine hour of dire despair, by Thine agony of prayer,

Dm                 G7         Dm     A7       F        G7   A7   Dm
By the cross, the nail, the thorn, piercing spear and tort’ring scorn,

Bb                  F               Dm                G   A7
By the gloom that veiled the skies o’er the dreadful sacrifice,

Bb     F      Dm      A    Dm            G7 A7  Dm
Listen to our humble sigh: hear our penitential cry!

Dm             G7      Dm                 Bb       C
By Thy deep expiring groan, by the sad sepulchral stone,

Dm                  G7   Dm    A7      F       G7  A7  Dm
By the vault whose dark abode held in vain the rising God,

Bb                 F               Dm        G        A7
O, from earth to heav’n restored, mighty reascended Lord,

Bb       F         Dm       A    Dm            G7 A7  Dm
Bending from Thy throne on high, hear our penitential cry!
