℣. We adore you, Christ, and we praise you. ℟. Because by your holy Cross, you have redeemed the world.
Meditation: Consider how Jesus Christ fell for the third time. He was extremely weak and the cruelty of His executioners was excessive; they tried to hasten His steps though He hardly had strength to move.
Prayer: My outraged Jesus, by the weakness You suffered in going to Calvary, give me enough strength to overcome all human respect and all my evil passions which have led me to despise Your friendship. I love You, Jesus my Love, with all my heart; I am sorry for ever having offended You. Never permit me to offend You again. 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) Make me feel as You have felt Make my soul to glow and melt With the love of Christ, my Lord.
