The Way of the Cross
STATION 12: Jesus Dies on the Cross
We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You (or: We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.)
BECAUSE BY YOUR HOLY CROSS, YOU HAVE REDEEMED THE WORLD.
A Reading from the Gospel According to Luke
(Luke 23: 44-46)
It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour, while the sun’s light failed, and the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into thy hands, I commit my spirit!” And having said this, he breathed his last.
- moment of silence -
V. Lord Jesus, Crucified.
R. HAVE MERCY ON US.
Stabat Mater
Let me mingle tears with thee,
Mourning Him who mourned for me,
All the days that I may live.
