Sunday of the Passion: Palm Sunday.

Almighty and everliving God, in your tender love for the
human race you sent your Son our Savior Jesus Christ to
take upon him our nature, and to suffer death upon the cross,
giving us the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant
that we may walk in the way of his suffering, and also share
in his resurrection; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever
and ever. Amen.

3. Neither a prayer nor a hymn, but

appropriate for this day:

When fishes flew, and forests walked,
And fig grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood,
Then surely I was born.

With monstrous head and sickening cry,
And ears like errant wings;
The Devil's walking parody
On all four-footed things.

The tattered outlaw of the earth,
Of ancient, crooked will,
Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb,
I keep my secret still.

Fools! For I also had my hour,
One far, fierce hour and sweet.
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.

The Donkey, G. K. Chesterton
