Lessons and Prayers for Holy Week – Wednesday

Introit: At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow: of things in heaven and things in earth and things under the earth. For he became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross; wherefore He is Lord, to the glory of the Father. Hear my prayer, O Lord; and let my cry come to You.
EPISTLE: Isaiah 62:11 to 63:7

Grant, we beseech You, almighty God, that we, who for our evil deeds are continually afflicted, may mercifully be relieved by the Passion of Your only-begotten Son, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one true God, now and forever. Amen.
