We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee,
because by Thy holy cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.

REFLECTION

It is now over.

Body buried, neatly tombed.

Spices ready.

Cloths in proper place.

Little things are done.

No one can face the larger agonies,

of loss,

of loneliness,

of anxiety.

Faithful friends busy with tiny things.

Jesus Christ is dead.

 

PRAYER
Jesus, our brother.

The end of life is so definite.

We fear it deep within.

We do not want to die.

Help us understand that

our lives are but a prelude to a new life,

a life with your father.

Jesus, Lord, your gift accepted,

In three days you resurrected,

You did first what we should do.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be to the Father
 
Jesus Christ, crucified, have mercy on us!

Sabat Mater

By the cross with thee to stay,
There with thee to weep and pray,
Is all I ask of thee to give.
