a prayer for holy week


Pantokrator
Originally uploaded by gwbrark.
O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, we pray thee to set thy passion, cross and death between thy judgement and our souls, now and in the hour of our death. Vouchsafe to grant mercy and grace to the living, rest to the dead, to thy holy Church peace and concord, and to us sinners everlasting life and glory; for thou art alive and reignest, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen.

-Hours of the BVM before the 14th C. (from "A Manual of Anglo-Catholic Devotion")
