Description

SATB Choir. From The Passion of Christ. Originally with organ, this unaccompanied version is just right for Maundy Thursday and Good Friday when you need an a cappella setting.
Pleading, and dramatic, and full of wonderful harmonies.

O Savior of the world, who by thy cross and precious blood hast redeemed us:
Save us and help us, we humbly beseech thee, O Lord.
