Seventh Station
Jesus Falls the Second Time
V. We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
R.
Because by Thy holy Cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.
Overwhelmed by the weight of the Cross, Jesus falls again to the ground.
But the cruel executioners do not permit Him to rest a moment. With thrusts
and blows they urge Him onward. With what cruelty Jesus in treated and
trampled under foot! Remember, compassionate soul, that your sins caused
Jesus this painful fall.
Have mercy on me, O Jesus, * and help me never to fall into my former sins.
* From this moment I will strive sincerely * never to sin again. * But Thou,
O Jesus, strengthen me with Thy grace, * that I may faithfully carry out my
resolution.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
V.
Lord Jesus, crucified.
R.
Have mercy on us.
For the sins of His own nation,
Saw Him hang in desolation
Till His spirit forth He sent.
