German:
Ehre sei dir Christe, der du leidest Not
An dem Stamm des Kreuzes
Für uns den bittern Tod,
Und herrschest mit dem Vater dort in Ewigkeit,
Hilf uns armen Sündern zu der Seligkeit.
Kyrie eleison,
Christe eleison,
Kyrie eleison.

English:
Glory to Thee, Christ,
Thou who sufferest pain and death
At the foot of the Cross for us
Who now reigns with the Father in eternity.
Help us poor sinners to achieve holiness.
Lord, have mercy,
Christ, have mercy,
Lord, have mercy.
