Programme Note
TEXT
Þann heilaga kross vor herra bar,
á holdi hans voru dauðleg sár.
Fyrir oss alla hann fullnað gjörði,
vér urðum ei keyptir með öðru verði.
Því hlýðið, kæru kristnir menn,
hvað kennir oss öllum skriftin senn.
Þeir sem vist á himnum hljóta,
herrans pínu þeir verða að njóta.
Einasta Guði sé æra og dýrð,
er sinn son sendi hingað á jörð.
Hann stýri og stjórni oss öllum saman,
svo vér hann óttumst og elskum.
Amen.
On the holy cross our Lord,
on his flesh were mortal wounds.
For all of us he accomplished this,
we were not redeemed for a lesser price.
Therefore, dear Christians,
this we all teach of his scripture.
Those who receive heavenly glory,
the love of the Lord they must enjoy.
One God is glory everlasting,
his song is sent here on earth.
He leads and guides us together,
we serve him with reverence and love.
Amen.
