My people what have I done to you ?
How have I offended you? Answer me!
Holy is God, Holy and strong!
Holy, Immortal One, have mercy on us.

I led you out of Egypt, from slave- | ry to | freedom: but you led your Saviour | to the | cross.

2.

I opened the | sea be- | fore you

My people what have I done to you ?
How have I offended you? Answer me!
Holy is God, Holy and strong!
Holy, Immortal One, have mercy on us.

I led you on your way in a | pillar · of | cloud: but you led me to | Pil-ate's | court.

4.

I bore you up with manna | in the desert

My people what have I done to you ?
How have I offended you? Answer me!
Holy is God, Holy and strong!
Holy, Immortal One, have mercy on us.
5.

I gave you saving water | from the | rock: but you gave me vinegar and | gall to | drink.

6.

For you I struck down the | Kings.

My people what have I done to you ?

Holy is God, Holy and strong!
Holy, Immortal One, have mercy on us.

I gave you a | roy-al | sceptre: but you gave me a | crown of | thorns.

I raised you to the | heights of glory.

My people what have I done to you ?
How have I offended you? Answer me!
Holy is God, Holy and strong!
Holy, Immortal One, have mercy on us.
