37. Chorale
O hilf, Christe, Gottes Sohn,
O help, Christ, O Son of God,
Durch dein bitter Leiden,
Through thy bitter passion,
Dass wir dir stets untertan
That we, who thee ever serve,
All Untugend meiden,
May avoid all error,
Deinen Tod und sein Ursach
May thy death and its true cause
Fruchtbarlich bedenken,
Fruitfully consider,
Dafür, wiewohl arm und schwach,
For which, although poor and weak,
Dir Dankopfer schenken!
Thee our thanks we offer!
