You did not avert Your facefrom the spittle of perfidy,yet You wash souls in saving waters. You accepted Your scourging without murmur,yet through your meditationYou deliver us from endless chastisements. You endured ill-treatment of all kinds,yet You want to give us a sharein the choirs of angels in glory everlasting. You did not refuse to be crowned with thorns,yet You save us from the wounds of sin. In your thirst You accepted the bitterness of gall,yet You prepare Yourself to fill us with eternal delights. You kept silence under the derisive homagerendered You by Your executioners,yet You petition the Father for usalthough You are his equal in Divinity. You came to taste death,yet You were the Lifeand had come to bring it to the dead. ***** Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
