April 2

Holy Thursday

Nail our hands

in your hands

to the Cross.

Make us take and hold

the hard thing.

Nail our feet,

in your feet

to the Cross,

that they may never

wander away from you.

Make our promises and our vows,

nails that hold us fast,

that even the dead weight of sin,

dragging on the nails

in our last weakness,

may not separate us from you,

but may make us one with you

in your redeeming love.

Amen.
