℣. We adore you, Christ, and we praise you. ℟. Because by your holy Cross, you have redeemed the world.
Meditation: Consider how the disciples carried the body of Jesus to its burial, while His holy Mother went with them and arranged it in the sepulcher with her own hands. They then closed the tomb and all departed.
Prayer: Oh, my buried Jesus, I kiss the stone that closes You in. But You gloriously did rise again on the third day. I beg You by Your resurrection that I may be raised gloriously on the last day, to be united with You in heaven, to praise You and love You forever. I love You, Jesus, and I repent of ever having offended You. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me as You will.
Our Father ... Hail Mary ... Glory Be
Dear Jesus, Thou dost go to die For very love of me: Ah! let me bear Thee company; I wish to die with Thee. ℣. Have mercy on us, O Lord. ℟. Have mercy on us.
Hymn (Tune: Stabat Mater) Virgin of all virgins blest! Listen to my fond request: Let me share your grief divine.
