    To be said on Good Friday
    God bless Good Friday, Good Friday
    the day our Savior was crucified
    The Jews came with their sharp spears
    And peirced the heart of our Savior dear
    His poor mother being standing by
    With a heavy sigh and a dismal cry
    All who say this prayer three times by day, three times by night
    Shall never enter the gates of Hell or burn eternally.
