“Surely
this man was the son of God”
Opening Hymn: 820 When I Survey
First
My God, my God,
why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me,
so far from the
words of my groaning?
O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not
answer,
by night, and
am not silent.
Yet you
are enthroned as the Holy One;
you are the
praise of
In you
our fathers put their trust;
they trusted
and you delivered them.
They
cried to you and were saved;
in you they
trusted and were not disappointed.
You
who fear the Lord, praise him!
All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!
Revere him, all you descendants of
For
he has not despised or disdained
the suffering
of the afflicted one;
he has not
hidden his face from him
but has listened
to his cry for help.
Hymn: 15 All Heaven Declares
Gospel
At the sixth hour
darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour
Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"—which
means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? "When
some of those standing near heard this, they said, "Listen, he's calling
Elijah."
One man ran,
filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus
to drink. "Now leave him alone. Let's see if Elijah comes to take him
down," he said.
With a loud cry,
Jesus breathed his last.
The curtain of the
temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood
there in front of Jesus, heard his cry and saw how he died, he said, "Surely
this man was the Son of God!"
Some women were
watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of
James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.
