te de Ægypto, demerso Pharaone in mare rubrum: et tu me tradidisti principibus sacerdotum. Choirs A & B: Popule meus, quid feci tibi? Aut in quo contristavi te? Responde mihi. For your sake I scourged your captors and their firstborn sons, but you brought your scourges down on me. My people, what have I done to you? How have I offended you? Answer me! I led you from slavery to freedom and drowned your captors in the red sea, but you handed me over to your high priests. My people ...

Anglicanism During the English Reformation, the Reproaches were suppressed by Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury when he authored the first Book of Common Prayer in the sixteenth century. However, the liturgical movement and the desire to connect with ancient liturgical traditions has led to some Provinces in the Anglican Communion to reintroduce the Reproaches. For example, the revisers of the 1989 Anglican Prayer Book of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa to reintroduce the Reproaches as "The Solemn Adoration of Christ Crucified". In many Anglican Good Friday Liturgies, the Reproaches are sung at the Veneration of the Cross. Presbyterianism In the Presbyterian Church (USA), the Reproaches were incorporated in its 1993 Book of Common Worship, pp 287–291(Revised 2018). They are part of the Good Friday liturgy, and follow the Solemn Intercessions and Lord's Prayer. They may involve a rough-hewn cross carried in procession and placed before the worshipers, and thus begin, "Behold the cross on which was hung the salvation of the whole world." The people respond, "Come, let us worship." After the third repeat of this antiphonal call to worship, the reproaches begin. There are nine, each introduced by the congregation saying, "Holy God, Holy and mighty, Holy immortal One, have mercy upon us." and concluded with the congregation praying "Lord, have mercy." Though all nine can be read, they are chosen at the option of the liturgist. They can be followed by a psalm or hymn or other musical offering, and the congregation, thereafter, departs in silence. If used in the service of Friday Tenebrae, they are read at the end of the lessons, once only the Christ candle is still burning. At their end, the Christ candle is extinguished. Often a bell or chime is stuck 33 times in remembrance
