Chorale text and translation: Chorale Text German: Ach Herr, mich armen Sünder Straf nicht in deinem Zorn, Dein' ernsten Grimm doch linder, Sonst ist's mit mir verlorn. Ach Herr, wollst mir vergeben Mein Sünd und gnädig sein, Daß ich mag ewig leben, Entfliehn der Höllenpein.

English: Ah Lord, me a poor sinner Blame not within thy wrath; Thy solemn rage yet soften, Else is my hope forlorn. Ah Lord, may'st thou forgive me My sin and mercy send, That I have life eternal And flee the pain of hell. --Tr. Z. Philip Ambrose[[1]]
