"O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig" (O Lamb of God, innocent)
is an early Lutheran hymn, with text and melody
attributed to Nikolaus Decius. Originally intended as a
German hymn instead of the Latin Agnus Dei, it was used
rather as a hymn for Passiontide. In both meanings, the
hymn has often been set to music, prominently as the
cantus firmus in the opening chorus of Bach's St
Matthew Passion. It is included in most German hymnals,
and was translated, for example by Catherine
Winkworth.
