Good Friday Prayer of Love for the Crucified Lord

by Meline Ngo 吳玲玲 · Published 8 April 2020 · Updated 25 April 2020

O Jesus,

it is not the heavenly reward

You have promised

which impels me to love You;

neither is it the threat of hell

that keeps me from offending You.

It is You O Lord, it is the sight

of You affixed to the

Cross and suffering insults;

it is the sight of

Your broken body, as well as

Your pains and Your death.

There is nothing

You can give me

to make me love You.

For even if there were

no heaven and no hell

I would still love you as I do!
