The cup, which we
share
a cup which he
accepted
a bitter cup of
sacrifice
a cup he did not
want;
asking for it to
be taken from him
from his lips,
from that moment
that he would not
have to drink;
but a cup from
which he drank
a cup of our
sorrows
which he shares
with us today -
A cup of
servanthood, of forgiveness
a cup of salvation
