Good Friday Blessings

O Thou Lamb of God, slain for sinners, this day brings me to the foot of Thy Cross. Humbly and shamefully I admit that Thou has borne my griefs and carried my sorrows; the chastisement of my peace was upon Thee, and with Thy stripes I am healed. I thank Thee that Thou didst suffer all as my Substitute.
