Jesus is laid in the tomb

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You.
Because by Your Holy Cross You
have redeemed the world.

My Lord Jesus Christ:

I want to begin a new life of becoming more completely the person whom God the Father created me to be. In this, I will find freedom from everything and everyone that has caused me to suffer, because no matter what happens to me, I am with You, and Your love for me is sufficient. Your love has redeemed me. Your love has taken my pain and enhanced it with hope. My suffering is not futile when I endure it for love of You and for love of others. Help me to more fully understand this, and let this motivate me toward greater imitation of You, all the way to the Cross and the glorious Resurrection that always follows!

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Virgin, of all virgins blest,
O refuse not my request:
let me share your grief divine.
