Third Station of the Cross (Traditional)
|
Song of the Sorrowful Mother
Who on Christ's dear Mother thinking, |
Jesus Falls the First Time Under the Cross
We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You, because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
Our Lord Jesus Christ humbled himself to the point of death, even to death on the Cross. That is why God exalted him above every creature, and gave him a name that is above all other names. Come, let us adore and bow down in worship before God; let us weep in the presence of the Lord who made us, for he is indeed the Lord our God.
Surely He has borne our infirmities, and He has carried our sorrows.
Let Us Pray
Almighty God and Father, we confess that we are weak and that we often fail in the midst of trials and sufferings. Through the merits of the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ, Your only begotten Son, give us new courage and hope. This we ask in Jesus' Name, who lives and reigns forever. Amen!
