Jesus falls the first time under the weight of the Cross I adore Thee O Christ Because by Thy holy Cross |
|
O Jesus, who for my sins didst bear the heavy burden of the Cross, and didst fall under its weight, may the thought of thy sufferings make me watchful over myself, and save me from any grievous fall into sin. Amen |
|
Bowed down under the weight of the cross, Jesus slowly sets forth on the way to Calvary, amidst the mockeries and insults of the crowd. His agony in the garden has exhausted his body; he is sore with blows and wounds; his strength fails him; he falls to the ground under the Cross. |
O God, I love thee with my whole heart and above all things, and am heartily sorry that I have offended thee. May I never offend thee any more. O may I love thee without ceasing, and make it my delight to do in all things thy most holy will. Amen |
The Lord's Prayer May the souls of the faithful to the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen Click here for the next Station |
