106. Pray for us
Pray for us, thou prince of peace,
Amice Christi, Johannes.
Amice Christi, Johannes.
[1]
To thee now, Christës darling,The which was maiden both old and young,
My soul is set to sing:
Amice Christi, Johannes.
2
On Christës breast asleep he lay;The privities of heaven there he say,
For he was so clean a may;
Amice Christi, Johannes.
3
Christ before Pilate was brought;The clean maiden forsook him nought;
To die with him was all his thought;
Amice Christi, Johannes.
4
Christës mother was him betake,A maiden to be anotherës make;
Through their help we shall not be forsake;
Amice Christi, Johannes.
