Would you believe we sang this in… school? Our seventh-grade chorus Spring Concert included it.
This hymn, commemorating the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, goes back to 1250 A.D. We’ll hear the bells of St. Francis play it today.

I had never heard this song before. We sang some Christian songs and our band played some of them,, which is hard to imagine in today’s schools.
We sang every verse of this sacred hymn as the John passage of Jesus trial and crucifixion were read from the pulpit as our Good Friday Divine Service.
