Day Thirty Seven, Wednesday in Holy Week

Hebrews 12

1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

2 looking to Jesus as the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in his wonderful face
and the things of earth will go strangely dim
in the light of his glory and grace
