Palm Sunday
Hymn to the Bridegroom
I see your bridal chamber adorned,
Oh my Savior,
but I have no garment fit to enter in.
Oh Giver of Light,
make radiant the garment of my soul and save me!
The 10 Virgins with oil
All the works of the Lord, praise the Lord!
Anointing Jesus with oil
Though I have outdone the sinful woman, I have offered you no shower of tears. Rather I fall before you fervently kissing your feet, praying silently that, as Master, you will forgive me my sins as I cry, “Savior, free me from my foul deeds”
The Last Supper
Our Father in Heaven,
Holy is your name,
Your Kingdom come your will be done
on Earth and in Heaven.
Give us today our food
and forgive us (Jesus) as we forgive others.
Lead us not into trouble but save us from the Bad Guy.
In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
Amen!
Crucifixion
On this day You declared the Thief worthy of Paradise. Enlighten me too, Lord, by the wood of the cross and save me!
Christ in Hades
Arise Oh Lord, and judge the earth for you shall inherit all the nations!
Resurrection
Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down Death by death and to those in the tombs bestowing Life!
