First Preface

P. Let us all pray and plead to the Lord

for His blessings and mercies.

C. Lord of all blessings,

bless us and help us.

P. May we become worthy to continuously offer You

praise, thanksgiving, glory, adoration

and everlasting majesty.

O glorious Lord the Messiah, who chose to allow Yourself

to be tried in a court of justice,

and like a sheep before its shearers,

x

stood silently before the judge, Pilate,

to be unjustly condemned to death by the wicked ones of this world,

and who by Your grace, delivered us from the condemnation that

was justly ours, You are worthy of praise, honour and adoration,

at this time of prayer and worship

and all the days of our lives,

now and forever more.

C. Amen.

Prayer

P. The Word, who proceeded from the Father before the ages,

and in the fullness of time, took flesh of the blessed virgin Mary,

the prophecies and revelations of old

have been fulfilled through Your Holiness.

The mystery hidden to generations,

was openly revealed before the whole world.

He who is reverently praised

by the heavenly hosts,

was insulted by wretched humanity.

Even though the splendour of the heavens

could not match the glory of Your countenance,

they spat on Your face and flogged You with a whip.

The supreme Judge of all judges,

was tried on a day like this.

The One who spread the firmament like a garment,

and who established the earth and the sea,

was declared guilty by the judge, Pilate.

The heavenly beings above, shuddered on seeing You;

those on earth below, mocked You.

The Cherubim in the heavens, blessed You;

on earth below, the wicked ones insulted You.

The Seraphim in the heavens, proclaimed Your holiness;

xi

on earth below, deceitful men abused You.

The One who is clothed with brilliance in the heavens,

was clothed with humiliation by those on earth.

The One who is praised

with the Father in the heavens,

was counted with the criminals on earth.

The One, who from the heavens, crowns all kings,

was crowned on earth with thorns.

The One, who in the heavens, shares heavenly glory

with the Father and the Holy Spirit,

was crucified on earth, between robbers.

The One who, from the heavens, turned bitter water

into a sweet drink at Marah,

xii

was offered bitter vinegar on earth.

He who, in the heavens, breathed

the breath of life into Adam, surrendered His life on earth

for the descendants of Adam.

Therefore O Lord, with grateful hearts,

we pray to You

Praise be to You

because You suffered for us.

Praise be to You

because, You died and gave us life.

Praise be to You

because by Your glorious resurrection,

You raised us into the presence of the Father.

We affirm Your humanity,

and we praise Your divinity.

You are worthy of praise, honour and worship,

now and forever more.

C. Amen.

Chant

Early in the morning on the sixth day,

the Lord was brought by the Pharisees

to Pilate's chambers;

there He suffered much:

Harsh words from the Jews,

and beatings from the servants;

in the hands of sinners, He was treated like a sinner.

He bore the pain, and accepted the judgment

of the wicked, to be hung on the cross. Bless us O Lord.

You were caught in the hands of cruel people.

O Lord, all through the night,

to their resentful beating,

we thankfully praise You

and bow down before Your holiness.

Prayer of Incense

P. Praise be to the One who was sacrificed on a tree.

You are the One who saved Your holy Church

from the pit of sin, from impure sacrifices,

and from all unholy perversions.

By Your blood, we were saved

from death and destruction.

O Lord, because You alone are our Saviour;

we revere Your cross,

and cling to Your passion.

Accept the prayers of us who are weak,

and answer unto us.

Bless the offspring of Your holy Church.

You are worthy of praise and honour,

now and forever more.

C. Amen.

Prayer

P. O Lord, who is without beginning and end

and beyond time itself,

and yet lived within the limitations of space and time

as fully God and fully Man,

we praise You because You established a new covenant for us

by allowing Your body to be broken and Your holy blood to be shed.

Behold, the Lord is in agony!

Behold, the King is being flogged with a whip!

Behold, the Lord of the universe

is being sentenced like a criminal!

Judas is betraying.

The Son of God is bearing the agony.

Satan gloats and says,

“I who triumphed over Adam, will never know defeat.”

John, with great love, follows Jesus

into the courtyard of the High Priest and stands in shock.

Simon denies the Lord.

Thomas runs away and James hides.

Annas’ people are preparing the cross.

A crown of thorns is being prepared.

Nails are being sharpened.

The Saviour seems to be losing the battle.

For us, however, by that defeat, we are indeed victors.

The daughters of Jerusalem

who defied the Messiah are lamenting.

Those who put their trust in Him are indeed saved.

Teachings

1. The Righteous One is silent at the place of judgment.

Though not saying a word, He is being beaten.

When He stands like a sacrificial lamb,

without resisting,

the Jewish people angrily shout, “Crucify Him!”

xxvii

2. The angels on high, are shaken.

Seeing the Creator suffering, they are melting away.

Let us praise the love that brought

the Son of God willingly down to earth

to take shame and accusations upon Himself.

3. They cast great suffering upon Him.

The Jews, angrily ill-treat Him.

They spit on His holy face.

They poke His head.

The Lord of lords takes on Himself immense suffering.

4. O You Sinner, look at the Saviour.

What crime did the Lord of lords commit in this world?

He healed the sick.

He raised the dead.

He fed the hungry and saved sinners.

for Thine is the Kingdom,

the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.

(Or in song)

The Lord’s Prayer

P. Our Father in heaven,

C. Hallowed be Thy name.

P. Thy Kingdom come;

C. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

P. Give us this day our daily bread.

C. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.

P. Lead us not into temptation and deliver us from the evil one,

C. For Thine is the Kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever.

Amen.

Nicene Creed

P. We believe in the one true God, the Father Almighty;

C. Maker of heaven and earth

and of all things

visible and invisible.

We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,

the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father

before all worlds; Light of light, very God of very God;

begotten not made,

being of one substance with the Father,

by whom all things were made;

who, for us

and for our salvation,

came down from heaven

and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary,

and was made Man;

He was crucified also for us

in the days of Pontius Pilate;

He suffered and died and was buried;

on the third day He rose again

by His own holy will, ascended into heaven

and sits at the right hand of the Father;

He shall come again with glory,

to judge both the living and the dead;

and of His Kingdom, there will be no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life;

who proceeds from the Father;

who with the Father and Son

together is worshipped and glorified;

who spoke by the prophets and the apostles;

and we believe in one holy catholic

and apostolic Church.

We acknowledge one baptism

for the forgiveness of sins and look forward

to the resurrection of the dead

and the new life of the world to come. Amen.

D. Bless us O Lord. Let us stand reverently.

C. Lord, have mercy.

Closing Prayer

P. Our Lord and our God, praise be to You for

ever,

praise be to You, praise be to You.

Our Lord Jesus Christ,

by Your grace and infinite mercy,

hear our prayers and accept our worship.

Our Lord and our God,

come to our help

and make us holy forever.

Our Lord,

may our worship be pleasing to You,

our adoration agreeable,

our supplications acceptable,

and our prayers honourable to You.

O Lord, may Your blessings,

mercies, help, grace and all Your divine gifts,

descend upon us who are weak,

and dwell with the potentially weak humanity

forever.

C. Amen.

(Or)

Closing Prayer

P. May we be guarded and protected day and night

by the glorious cross of the Son of God

which is the strong fortress for true believers,

the terror for devils and the glory of the angels.

May the Lord save us and protect us

all through our lives, from

the wrath of evil human beings,

the envy of Satan and non believers,

harassing authorities,

the clutches of merciless superiors,

all known and unknown enemies,

Benediction

P. Blessed are you by the Lord,

who made the heavens and the earth.

May the Lord God bless and sanctify all of you,

who have come prepared,

of the Triune God,

the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

C. Amen.
