​
Collect:​ God of kings and criminals:  your ways are not our ways.  On the way to Jerusalem, with shouts we acclaimed you;  on the way to Calvary, with shouts we condemned you.  Mercifully grant us the way that leads to life,  For you are alive and reign with the Father  in the unity of the Holy Spirit,  one God, now and for ever. Amen
