Poem

Lord Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me.

Break my bondage to this cold heart of mine,

And set me free from thinking only of me.

Over my rebellious heart give me a victory.

Once again, let us celebrate the year of Jubilee.

Then we will sing contentiously songs of praise to Thee.



Lord Jesus, once you broke the bondage of sin,

On a cross at a place called Calvary.

Surely the victory there included me.

If so, please from my self centeredness set me free.

Create in me a new love for You and all humanity.

Let it be, O Lord. Let it be.



I am listening now for whatever You have to say.

My little children, humble yourselves and pray:

Father in Heaven if You are really “up there,”

Make yourself known as the One who does truly care.

Assure us that through the power of your Spirit,

For all our needs, You will a bounty prepare.



Especially, help us to claim Jesus’ victory over the evil one.

Remember how on the Cross He said, “It is finished, it is done.”

At the Resurrection He defeated our worst enemy, death,

Through your visitation to us as the Incarnate One.

Thank You for making possible our eternal salvation.

On Good Friday and Easter Sunday at the rising of the SON.
