by Henri Vangeon (1875 - 1944), as Henri Ghéon

Crucifixion
 (Sung text for setting by H. Andriessen)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français) 
Avec ma pauvre plainte de mè,
Que suis-je là devant, mon Aimé?
Un Dieu qui meurt... Oui! le grand mystère!
Je vois un Fils, qui me va quitter.

Qu'aucun rayon d'en haut n'adoucisse
Une douleur que toute je veux:
A ma douleur je fais sacrifice
De la Divinité de mon Dieu.

Il voit mes pleurs et me les pardonne.
J'accepterai l'enfant qu'il me donne
A consoler dans notre maison...

Mais c'est trop peu pour tenir sa place:
Entre mes bras qui plus ne l'embrassent
Tous ses enfants, les hommes viendront.
