  1. Old Prayer

    Share Share Post
    It was on a Good Friday Our Savior was crucified
    The crown of thorns pierced on His Head and the Jesus passing by
    They pierced Our Saviour's innocent Head, and from the Head into the Heart
    His precious Blood it did flow
    His Blessed Mother was standing by with a heavy heart and a dismal eye.
    God bless those that says those prayers.
    Three times by day and three times night,
    They never shall die in death nor danger
    And the Gates of Hell never shall be opened
    For their souls to enter in.
