+Glory be to the Father, and to the
Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever
shall be, world without end. Amen. *Let the words of my mouth and the
meditation of my heart, Be always acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen.
From the rising of the sun, unto the going down of the same,
"The name of the Lord is to be praised.
Holy Jesus of the
Cross, I yield myself to Thee, To live in obedience to Thy humility.
Man shall not live by bread alone, but
by every Word That proceeds from the mouth of God.
*Labor not for food that perishes, but
for the food that endures to eternal life, Which the Son
of Man will give you.
Holy Jesus of the
Cross, I yield myself to Thee, To live in obedience to Thy humility.
Thou
will keep in perfect peace those whose mind is stayed on Thee.
*For in returning and rest we shall be saved; in quietness and trust shall be our strength.
Holy Jesus of the
Cross, I yield myself to Thee, To live in obedience to Thy humility.
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have
crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
*Therefore be imitators of God, as
beloved children, and walk in love,
As Christ loved us and gave Himself up
for us.
Holy Jesus of the
Cross, I yield myself to Thee, To live in obedience to Thy humility.
Bear one another’s burdens, and so
fulfill the law of Christ.
*Not
by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord of hosts.
Holy Jesus of the
Cross, I yield myself to Thee, To live in obedience to Thy humility.
Oh Lord and Master of my life, Give me not a
spirit of sloth, vain curiosity, lust for power, and idle talk.
But give to me, Thy servant, a spirit
of soberness, humility, patience, and love.
O Lord and King, grant me to see my own
faults, and not to condemn my brother.
For blessed art Thou to the ages of ages,
Amen.
(Prayer of St. Ephrem the
Syrian)
Come O Holy Spirit, replenish my heart, And enkindle in it the fire of Thy Divine love.
Into Thy hands I
commend my spirit, for Thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, Thou God of truth.
+In the name of the Father, and the Son, and
the Holy Ghost.
Blessed be the Holy and Undivided Trinity, now
and for evermore. Amen.
Note: My husband put together these prayers and I put some music to a lot of it. I thought I would share this prayer/meditation for this Lent. These prayers, when prayed in faith, will work to conform our spirits more to Christ, thereby making us more Christlike. They are a very good prayers for morning when time is short due to the responsibilities of the workday. May each one of you be blessed this Holy Lent and draw ever near to Christ.
