Additional Short Preface | |||
The Holy Cross | |||
And now we give you thanks | |||
because for our sins he was lifted high upon the cross, | |||
that he might draw the whole world to himself; | |||
and, by his suffering and death, | |||
became the source of eternal salvation | |||
for all who put their trust in him. | |||
This Preface can also be used on 14 September. | |||
