O
Lord Jesus,
gentle
and humble of heart,
full
of compassion and maker of peace,
you
lived in poverty and suffered persecution for the cause of justice.
You
chose the Cross as the path to glory to show us the way of salvation.
May
we receive the word of the Gospel joyfully
and
live by your example as heirs and citizens of your kingdom. Amen.
