From Milner-White's 'Sursum Corda'

Thanksgivings - Wednesday.

Life in Christ.

To JESUS the life of our flesh,
Who quickeneth whom He willeth :
To JESUS the life of our soul,
Who came that we might live more abundantly:
To Jesus the life of His Church,
Who loved her and gave Himself for her :
Let all mankind in earth and in paradise,
Reconciled by His death, and saved by His life,
Give glory and honour, worship and praise,
Now and for ever and ever.

+Laus Deo.

A Collect of Life through the Cross of Christ

O GOD, our salvation and truth, grant that we thy children, rejecting the proud wisdoms of the world, may betake ourselves to the Cross of thy dear Son, to walk by its way, to repose in its shadow, to venerate its mercy, and to embrace its scorn : through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
