Jesus’ body is removed from the cross

Jesus’ body is removed from the cross

Thy body and Thy blood, O Word, Thou has offered at Thy crucifixion for the sake of all: Thy body to refashion me, Thy blood to wash me clean; and Thou has given up Thy spirit, O Christ, to bring me to Thy Father.

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me.

From the Canon of St. Andrew, First Fruits of Prayer by Frederica Matthewes-Green, Paraclete Press, 2006.
