The goal of the paper is to present the author´s strategy and try to decipher those of his poetic techniques that appear in the texts of the fasting worship songs of the Beckov and Skalica Slovak service books by Franciscan Juraj Pavlín Bajan. As for the proto-text, Gospel according to John is mainly used. In terms of subject, the fasting worship songs are related to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, which results in the motif of crucifixion as a crime in the manuscript service books in question. The crucifixion as a crime is of a dual form: Bajan frames the subject as two accusations, while he draws attention to two culprits in his songs. The framework of Bajan´s accusation is the cruel and great suffering of innocent Christ and identifying the culprit by whom the suffering was caused. In the first place Bajan depicts the biblical culprit. That is personalized in the characters of Christ´s contemporaries. The culprit is mainly represented by an angry Jew, who beats Christ mercilessly, kicks him and mocks him, et cetera. In the other case it is an updated culprit. Bajan´s updated culprit is personalized in the lyric self as well as the recipient of his text – the believers whom the text was written for. In his songs Bajan seeks support for his text in Gospel according to John. He does not only remain at the level of documentary, he updates the text and develops it. Using the images of Christ´s suffering from the Gospel he raises a question of guilt for that suffering and encourages the recipient of the text to contemplate the so called Easter events. The author´s intention is not to identify the culprit responsible for Christ´s suffering but to show God´s plan of salvation, and God´s love for human, which included the suffering.
