O Christ, your life was no triumph, you carried a cross; may we walk along the same road as you.
O Christ, by your suffering you learned faithfulness; you became a source of eternal salvation for the whole human race.
O Christ, when threatened you did not retaliate; enable us to forgive to the very end.
O Christ, you see the pain of those who are exiled and abandoned; take their suffering upon yourself.
O Christ, when lies and worries try to separate us from you, your Holy Spirit is always with us.
O Christ, you are the happiness of those who follow you: enable us to live by your trust.
O Christ, our life is hidden with you in God; that is a joy that touches the depths of the soul.
Strengthen us, Eternal God, and we will wait in silence and peace until the light of the Resurrection rises upon us. Amen.
Prayer from Taize
