The Stations of the Cross

An Act of Contrition

O my God, my Redeemer, behold me here at Thy feet. From the bottom of my heart I am sorry for all my sins, because by them I have offended Thee, Who art infinitely good. I will die rather than offend thee again.

FIRST STATION: Jesus is condemned to Death

V - We adore Thee, O Christ, and bless Thee.

+ - Because by Thy holy cross Thou hast redeemed the world. My Jesus, often have I signed The death warrant by my sins; save me by Thy death from that eternal death which I have so often deserved. Our Father. Hail Mary. Glory Be to the Father.

V - Jesus Christ Crucified.

+ - Have mercy on Us.

V - May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in peace.

+ - Amen.

SECOND STATION: Jesus bears His Cross

V - We adore Thee, O Christ, and bless Thee.
+ - Because by Thy holy cross Thou hast redeemed the world.

My Jesus, Who by Thine own will didst take on Thee the most heavy cross I made for Thee by my sins, oh, make me feel their heavy weight, and weep for them ever while I live.

Our Father. Hail Mary. Glory Be to the Father.

V - Jesus Christ Crucified.
+ - Have mercy on Us.
V - May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in peace.
