2023 Holy Week Liturgy | Day 6
Good Friday | Lifted Up
BASED ON JOHN 3:14-16, JOHN 19 & ISAIAH 53:4-7
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son
They shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!”
Whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
But they shouted, “Take him away! Crucify him!”
The Son of Man must be lifted up
Carrying his own cross he went out to the place of the Skull
He took up our pain and bore our suffering
They crucified him
The Son of Man must be lifted up
Drive the cross into the rock base on the lid
It had to be this way.
He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities;
The punishment that brought us peace was on him and by his wounds we are healed.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son.
We look to the cross to remember the love of God
Lifted up for us.
