Christ the Servant

Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example,
that you should follow in his steps.

He committed no sin; no guile was found on his lips.
When he was reviled, he did not revile in return

When he suffered, he did not threaten;
but he trusted to him who judges justly.
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree,
that we might die to sin and live to righteousness.

By his wounds you have been healed.
For you were straying like sheep,
but have now returned
to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and will be forever. Amen.
