Holy Saturday ✝️
I thought of this lovely, thoughtful hymn today - Breathe On Me Breath Of God.
When I sang this in the Harefield, Middlesex church choir I always felt a hushed tone to it. It builds to reach a crescendo towards the end and finishes as though there is more to come …. which of course there is.
This day is for prayer and fasting, meditating on the Passion and Death of Jesus and His Descent into Hell, awaiting his Resurrection.
The Easter Vigil Following ancient tradition, the Christians keeps vigil for the Lord, the faithful carry lighted lamps, as if looking for the Lord when He returns.
The ceremony begins after nightfall and must end before daybreak. Even though it be celebrated before midnight, this is a Paschal Mass of the Resurrection.
