Tenebrae (“darkness”), so called from the tradition of progressively extinguishing the candles, is the long Office of Readings and Morning Prayer on Good Friday and Holy Saturday. It is made up of psalms, readings and chants, including the beautiful excerpts of the Lamentations of Jeremiah. A liturgy of grieving well.
