Lyrics
Chì mi aran air an Altair,
’S anns a’ chailis chì mi fìon;
Bidh iad air an tionndadh fhathast
Gu fìor Chorp is fìor Fhuil Chrìosd.
Nigh mo chridhe, fàg gun smal e -
’S lìonmhor lochd bh’air m’anam riamh,
Ach, mas àill leat, ni Thu m’ghlanadh,
Chionn tha’n comas agads’, Ios’.
Lyrics Translated
I see bread on the Alter
And I see wine in the chalice
They will be turned yet
Into the True Body and True Blood of Christ.
Wash my heart, leave it without blemish –
Many wounds were on my soul always
But, if it is your wish, you will Wash me,
Because you have the ability, Jesus.
Translation by Gillebride MacMillan
