Mitten wir im Leben sind
Von dem Tod umfangen.
Wen suchen wir, der Hilfe tu' ,
Daß; wir Gnad' erlangen?
Das bist du, Herr, alleine!
Uns reuet unsre Missetat,
Die dich, Herr, erzürnet hat.
Heiliger Herre Gott,
Heiliger, starker Gott,
Heiliger, barmherziger Heiland,
Du ewiger Gott, laß uns nicht versinken
In des bittren Todes Not! Kyrie eleison!

Enmig de la nostra vida
la mort ens envolta.
Qui podem albirar, que ens doni ajut,
que ens aconsegueixi el perdó?
Aquest ets tu, Senyor, només tu!
Ens penedim dels nostres pecats,
que a tu, Senyor, t’han fet enutjar.
Senyor Déu Sant!
Déu Sant totpoderós!
Sant, misericordiós Salvador, tu Déu etern,
no ens deixis caure en dolorós l’infortuni de la mort! Kyrie eleison.
