Jesus Is Laid In The Sepulchre
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn in the rock. He then rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb and went away.
Matthew 27: 59-60
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd:
therefore can I lack nothing.
He will make me lie down in green pastures:
and lead me beside still waters.
He will refresh my soul:
and guide me in right pathways for his name's sake.
Though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil:
for you are with me
your rod and your staff comfort me.
You spread a table before me
in the face of those who trouble me:
you have anointed my head with oil
and my cup will be full.
Surely your goodness and loving kindness
will follow me all the days of my life: and I shall
dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Amen.
Jesus Christ Crucified.
Have Mercy on Us.
