Maundy Thursday
The Maundy Thursday service was superb last night. The liturgy was beautiful, and so very moving that I almost cried. The choir was in top form, and the procession of the Blessed Sacrament to the alter of repose before the stripping of the Altar (with the choir singing Tantum ergo "Therefore we, before him bending, this great sacrament revere") was just fantastic.
Scribere Orare Est talks about his experiance at the start of the Tridium here.

O Christ,
You girded Yourself with a linen cloth
and washed the feet of your Disciples;
wash also
that which is corrupt in our souls.
Surround us
with your spiritual brightness
so that we may observe
your commandments
and glorify Your goodness, O Lord.
