Good Friday

~Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830-1894)

Lord Jesus Christ, grown faint upon the Cross,
    A sorrow beyond sorrow in Thy look,
        The unutterable craving for my soul;
            Thy love of me sufficed
To load upon Thee and make good my loss
    In face of darkened heaven and earth that shook:—
        In face of earth and heaven, take Thou my whole
            Heart, O Lord Jesus Christ.
