Jesus Is Nailed to the Cross

V.
We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
R.
Because by Thy holy Cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.
Stripped of His garments, Jesus is violently thrown down on the Cross. His
hands and His feet are nailed to it in the most cruel way. Jesus remains
silent, because it so pleases His heavenly Father. He suffers patiently,
because He suffers for you. How do you act in sufferings and trials? How
fretful and impatient, how full of complaints are you!
O Jesus, * meek and patient Lamb, * I renounce forever my impatience. *
Crucify, O Lord, my flesh, * with its evil desires and vices. * Punish and
afflict me in this life, * but spare me in the next. * I resign myself
altogether to Thy holy will. * May it be done in all things.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
V.
Lord Jesus, crucified.
R. Have mercy on us.
Let me share with Thee His pain,
Who for all my sins was slain,
Who for me in torment died.
