For I am under the same accusation with my Saviour by Benjamin Britten Lyrics
For I am under the same accusation
With my Savior
For they said
He is besides himself
For the officers of the peace
Are at variance with me
And the watchman smites me
With his staff
For the silly fellow, silly fellow
Is against me
And belongeth neither to me
Nor to my family
For I am in twelve hardships
But he that was born of a virgin
Shall deliver me out of all
Shall deliver me out of all
With my Savior
For they said
He is besides himself
For the officers of the peace
Are at variance with me
And the watchman smites me
With his staff
For the silly fellow, silly fellow
Is against me
And belongeth neither to me
Nor to my family
For I am in twelve hardships
But he that was born of a virgin
Shall deliver me out of all
Shall deliver me out of all
