1	By the Blood that flowed from Thee In Thy bitter agony; By the scourge so meekly borne; By Thy purple robe of scorn, (Refrain) Jesus, Savior, hear our cry; Thou went suff'ring once as we; Hear the loving litany We Thy children sing to Thee.
2	By the thorns that crowned Thy Head; By Thy scepter of a reed; By Thy footstep faint and slow, Weighed beneath Thy cross of woe, Jesus, Savior, hear our cry; Thou went suff'ring once as we; Hear the loving litany We Thy children sing to Thee.
3	By the nails and pointed spear; By Thy people's cruel jeer; By Thy dying prayer which rose, Begging mercy for Thy foes, Jesus, Savior, hear our cry; Thou went suff'ring once as we; Hear the loving litany We Thy children sing to Thee.
4	By the darkness black as night, Blotting out the sun from sight; By the cry with which in death, Thou didst yield Thy parting breath, Jesus, Savior, hear our cry; Thou went suff'ring once as we; Hear the loving litany We Thy children sing to Thee.
