Morning:
My meditation of him shall be sweet:
I will be glad in the LORD.
As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my
beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great
delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. For who in the
heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of
the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?
My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten
thousand. One pearl of great price. The prince of the kings of
the earth.
His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy,
and black as a raven. The head over all things. The head
of the body, the church.
His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers. He
could not be hid.
His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers.
His lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh. Never
man spake like this man.
His countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.
Make thy face to shine upon thy servant. LORD, lift thou up the
light of thy countenance upon us.

Evening:
O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me:
nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save
me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the
will of him that sent me. He became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross. In the days of his flesh, when he
had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and
tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was
heard in that he feared; Though he were a Son, yet learned he
obedience by the things which he suffered.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he
shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to
rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and
remission of sins should be preached in his name among all
nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
