Holy Week — The Seven Words From the Cross — The First Word (Luke 23:34) (3)
George Timms (after C. J. Vaughan)Give us, O Lord, the spirit of humility, that we may never presume upon thy mercy, but live as those who have been much forgiven. Make us tender and compassionate towards others; and grant that we may show forth in our lives that enduring love which alone can triumph over all the powers of evil; after the example of thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
