Ah, Holy Jesus, How Hast Thou Offended

 Japanese Lyrics - 愛するイェス 

愛するイェス、何をなされて こんなさばき　受けられたか. どんな罪を　おかされたのか、 愛する主は.

鞭打たたれ、　茨の冠 かぶせられ　蔑まれた. 酸いぶどう酒　十字架あの上で 口にされた.

これほどの　痛み苦しみ 何のために　受けられたのか. ああ私の　罪を担われ 苦しまれた.

羊飼いは　羊のために その命　あえて捨てる. 正しい主が　しもべのために 罪を担う.

なんと深い　主のみ心よ、 なんと広ろい　イェスの愛いよ. 責め苦の道　歩まれたのは 私のため.

 English Lyrics - Ah, Holy Jesus, How Hast Thou Offended 

Ah, holy Jesus, how hast thou offended, that we to judge thee have in hate pretended? By foes derided, by thine own rejected, O most afflicted!

Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon thee? Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone thee! 'Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied thee; I crucified thee.

Lo, the Good Shepherd for the sheep is offered; the slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered. For our atonement, while we nothing heeded, God interceded.

For me, kind Jesus, was thy incarnation, thy mortal sorrow, and thy life's oblation; thy death of anguish and thy bitter passion, for my salvation.

Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay thee, I do adore thee, and will ever pray thee, think on thy pity and thy love unswerving, not my deserving.
