This accompaniment track is three verses.
Christ the life of all the living
Christ the death of death our foe
Christ yourself for me once giving
To the darkest depths of woe
Through your suff'ring, death, and merit
Lif eternal I inherit
Thousand, thousand thanks are due
Dearest Jesus unto you
You have suffered great affliciton
And have borne it patiently
Even death by crucifixion
To the darkest depths of woe
For you chose to be tormented
That my doom should be prevented
Thousand, thousand thanks are due
Dearest Jesus unto you
Then for all that bought my pardon
For the sorrows deep and sore
For the anguish in the garden
I will thank you evermore
Thank you for the groaning sighing
For the bleeding and the dying
For that last triumphant cry
Praise you evermore on high
