Prayer for Holy Week from the Prayer Circle


Prayer for Christian Worship
Holy Week

O Lord Christ, Lamb of God, Lord of Lords,
call us, who are called to be saints
along the way of thy cross;

Draw us, who would draw nearer our King
to the foot of thy cross;

Cleanse us, who are not worthy to approach,
with the pardon of thy cross;

Instruct us, the ignorant and blind
with the school of thy cross;

Arm us for the battles of holiness
with the might of thy cross;

Bring us in the fellowship of thy sufferings
to the victory of thy cross;

And seal us in the kingdom of thy glory
among the servants of thy cross;

O crucified Lord
who with the Father and the Holy Spirit
is alive and reigns, one God
world without end.
Amen

The best way is to say the prayer and each time concentrate on a different phrase or section and explore and meditate on the meaning for us and for our world.   Hope it helps.
