O Jesus Christ From Thee Began – Hymn Lyric

O Jesus Christ, from thee began
this healing for the soul of man,
by fasting sought, by fasting found,
through forty days of yearly round;

That he who fell from high delight,
borne down to sensual appetite,
by dint of stern control may rise
to climb the hills of paradise.

Therefore, Church, O Lord,
and grace of penitence accord
to all who seek with generous
renewal of their wasted years.

Forgive the sin that we have done,
forgive the course that we have run,
and show in evil day
thyself our succor and our .

But now let every heart prepare,
by sacrifice of fast and prayer,
to keep with joy magnifical
the solemn Easter festival.

Father and Son and Spirit blest,
to thee be every prayer addressed,
who art in threefold Name adored,
from age to age, the only Lord.

With contrite hearts, we seek your forgiveness for the sins we have committed and the paths we have chosen unwisely.

May you be our succor and our stay, providing us with the strength and courage to navigate the evil days that may come our way.

Now, as we enter into this season of fasting and prayer, let us prepare our hearts for the solemn Easter festival. The sacrifices we make and the prayers we offer are not to be begrudgingly carried but opportunities for us to experience true joy and magnificence. Through the discipline of fasting, we create space within our hearts to fully appreciate the significance of Easter, the celebration of your resurrection and the hope it brings.

As we embark on this spiritual journey, we address our prayers to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
