So ist mein Jesus nun gefangen...
Sind Blitze...
J. S. Bach

LOPC Festival Choir

Translation:
Behold my Jesus now is taken.
(Choir: Loose Him! Halt ye! Bind Him not!)
All is dark and for grief creation shaken,
for my Jesus has been taken!
All is dark and for grief creation shaken
(Choir: Loose Him! Halt ye! Bind Him not!)
They bind him fast; ah, they have bound Him,
they bind Him fast; ah, they have bound Him.

Will lightening and thunder in ruin engulf them?
May Hell's fiery furnance in fury surround them?
Destroy them? Defile them--the blood-thirsty horde?
The false-hearted band who murdered our Lord!
