Blessed be the name of the Lord,
from
this time forth and forevermore!
Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.
After they had sung the hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
There, beneath the ancient trees, while His disciples dozed, Jesus was
overwhelmed with sorrow as He prayed:
"Abba, Father, take this cup away from Me!
Take this cup away from Me!
Nevertheless, Abba, not My will,
let Yours be done.
Let Yours be done."
The hour had come when the Son of God was delivered into the hands
of His accusers and led away to be scourged, tried, and sentenced to
die, while His disciples turned and ran, just as Jesus had predicted.
Jesus gathered all of our sins and sorrows, our broken hearts, our
bruised and wounded spirits, and carried them with Him to the cross,
saying:
"All of these are Mine."
