Vespers in Holy Week
Holy Week at Vespers –
5. Blest tree, whose chosen branches bore
The wealth that did the world restore,
The price of human kind to pay
And spoil the spoiler of his prey.
6. To you, eternal Three in One,
Our songs shall rise in unison;
Those whom you ransom and restore
Preserve and govern evermore. Amen.
~Office Hymn
