LITANY OF THE SEVEN WORDS FROM THE CROSS.

May we in Thy sorrows share, For Thy sake all peril dare, Ever know Thy tender care. Hear us, Holy JESU.

May we all Thy loved ones be ,­All one holy family, Loving for the love of Thee. Hear us, Holy JESU.

mp" MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?"

PJESU, whelm'd in fears unknown, With our evil left alone,

While no light from Heav'n is shown, cr Hear us, Holy JESU.

When we seem in vain to pray, And our hope seems far away, In the darkness be our stay. Hear us, Holy JESU.

Though no Father seem to hear, Though no light our spirits cheer, May we know that GOD is near. Hear us, Holy JESU.

mp" I THIRST."

PJESU, in Thy thirst and pain, While Thy wounds Thy life- blood drain, Thirsting more our love to gain; cr Hear us, Holy JESU.

mp Long for us in mercy still; May we Thy desires fulfil ,­Satisfy Thy loving will.

cr Hear us, Holy JESU. ( 559)
