Jesus Dies on the Cross
 V.
We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
R.
Because by Thy holy Cross, Thou hast redeemed the world.
Behold Jesus crucified! Behold His wounds received for love of you! His
whole appearance betokens love. His head is bent to kiss you. His arms are
extended to embrace you. His heart is open to receive you. Oh what love!
Jesus dies on the Cross, to preserve you from eternal death.
Most lovable Jesus, * who will grant that I may die for love of Thee? * I
will endeavour to die to the world and its vanities * when I behold Thee on
the Cross * covered with wounds and crowned with thorns. * Merciful Jesus, *
take me into Thy wounded heart, * that I may despise all perishable things,
* to live and die for Thee alone.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
V.
Lord Jesus, crucified.
R.
Have mercy on us.
Let me mingle tears with thee,
Mourning Him who mourned for me,
All the days that I may live.
