...Grant us so to glory in the cross of Christ, that we may gladly suffer shame and loss for the sake of thy Son...

From the Daily Offices for Holy Week in the Book of Divine Worship.
Collect for the Tuesday of Holy Week.
O God, who by the passion of thy blessed Son didst make an instrument of shameful death to be unto us the means of life: Grant us so to glory in the cross of Christ, that we may gladly suffer shame and loss for the sake of thy Son our Savior Jesus Christ; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
