  1. Old Friday Prayers

    Share Share Post
    On good Friday the old people said this prayer.
    It was on good Friday morning the Jews come in to pierce our Saviour through the heart. From heart and hand his blood began to flow. His tender hearted mother standing by with aching heart and dismal cry.
    Anyone who says this prayer three times by day three times by night shall never die in mortal sin and the flames of hell shall never enter in.
