From common roots we all descent,
To same belonging source.
I trust that Christ was innocent,
When nailed to the cross.
Unprecedented cruelty,
Unparalleled was pain,
From which was no immunity,
And blood was shed like rain.
When all the face was coloured red
By thorny roses wreath.
He, even then, it must be said,
Continued to believe.
From common roots we all descent,
To same belonging source.
I trust that Christ was innocent,
When nailed to the cross.
