GREAT AND HOLY WEDNESDAY: LITURGY OF THE PRESANCTIFIED GIFTS

AT PSALM 140

In Tone 1

10.
In You, born of the Virgin, the harlot recognized her God;
ashamed of her sinful deeds, she sighed and wept, and said:
O Lord, loosen my debt to You, as I unloosen my hair.
Grant Your love to the one who loves You, despite all my unworthiness;
and I shall exalt Your love for all,
harlots and publicans alike,
O Lover of humankind and their Benefactor.
