Margarete Münsterberg, ed., trans.  A Harvest of German Verse.  1916.
 
Lamb of God
By Nikolaus Decius (1485–1541)
 
LAMB of God, innocent
Slaughtered upon the Tree,
With patience never spent,
Though scorned so cruelly:
All sin, Thou, Lord, dost bear,        5
Else we must all despair.
Have mercy on us, Jesus!
