A PRAYER TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
To Be Said by the Dying Person, or by Another for Him or Her

We adore Thee, O Christ, and we bless Thee.
R. Because by Thy holy Cross Thou hast redeemed the world.

O GOD, Who for the redemption of the world didst vouchsafe to be born, to be circumcised, to be rejected by the Jews, to be betrayed with a kiss by the traitor Judas, to be bound with cords, to be led as an innocent Iamb to the slaughter, and in the sight of Annas, Caiphas, Pilate, and Herod, to be treated with indignity, to be accused by false witnesses, to be afflicted with scourges and reproaches, to be spit upon, to be crowned with thorns, to be beaten with blows, to be struck with a reed, to have Thy face veiled, to be stripped of Thy garments, to be nailed to the Cross and raised high thereon, to be ranked among thieves, to be offered gall and vinegar to drink, and to be pierced with a lance: Do Thou, O Lord, by these Thy most holy pains, which I, though unworthy, now call to mind, and by Thy holy Cross and death, deliver me (or this Thy servant, N.) from the pains of Hell, and vouchsafe to lead me (name the person) whither Thou didst lead the good thief who was crucified with Thee. Who, with the Father and the Holy Ghost, livest and reignest forever and ever. Amen.
