In the midst of life we are in death
Language: English
Our translations: FRE SPA
In the midst of life we are in death: of whom
May we seek for succour, but of thee, O Lord,
Who for our sins art justly displeased? Yet,
O Lord, most mighty, O holy and most
Merciful Saviour, deliver us not into the bitter
Pains of eternal death.

La muerte está siempre presente
Language: Spanish (Español) after the English
La muerte está siempre presente: a quién
podemos pedir socorro sino a ti, Señor,
¿quién por nuestros pecados está justamente contrariado? Mas,
Señor Todopoderoso, nuestro Sagrado y más
Misericordioso Salvador, no nos dejes caer en el
amargo dolor de la muerte eterna.
