  1. Old Irish Prayers - A Prayer Said Before Retiring

    Share Share Post
    Jesus is condemed to die,
    God, through sin, I crucify,
    Lord who died for love of me,
    Help me live and die with Thee,
    Jesus bears the bitter cross,
    Bear Him up in grief and loss,
    Jesus falls in blood and woe,
    Sins of mine have struck Him low,
    Son and mother meet in pain,
    Must they grieve for me in vain?
    Simon helps to bear the load,
    Lead me too along Thy road,
    On a cloth He prints his face,
    In my soul Thine image trace,
    Struck to earth again by me,
    Help me rise and follow Thee,
    "Weep for sin" He tells us here,
    Jesus make my grief sincere,
