The blood of Jesus was shed

1. The blood of Jesus fell ; At the foot of the holy cross. ; From his precious holy body, ; From his five deep wounds. ; ; 2. But it did not remain on earth, ; Like a red rose, it opened, ; The holy angels picked it up, ; Humbly honored it. ; ; 3. Jesus said to the angel, ; Take it up to heaven to my holy Father. ; Tell me, I sent it from my cross, ; Receive it kindly from me. ; ; 4. This is the precious price of the world, ; The opened rose of my wounds, ; Which I gave birth to with great pain, ; I watered with bloody tears. ; ; 5. There is only one hour left, ; All work is done, ; The bitter cup is running out, ; Which has been waiting since the beginning of the world. ; ; 6. Adam's bitter apple, ; Brought to a painful death. ; Come to my cross, ; To the altar of your salvation. ; ; 7. Holy cross, but you are seedless, ; You are pregnant with the body of Jesus. ; Holy cross, but you are seedless, ; You are pregnant with the body of Jesus. ; ; 8. Three blunt iron nails hold it, ; A painful heart to cry. ; Three blunt iron nails hold it, ; A painful heart to cry. ; ; 9. Sons of Adam, sinners, ; Come to me to pray. ; Bow down before me, ; Praying to my Holy Father. ; ; 10. Never forget, ; That I died for you. ; Never forget, ; That I died for you.
