STATION 9: Jesus Falls the Third Time

V.  We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You (genuflect)

R.  Because, by Your holy Cross, You have redeemed the world.

Pray the Stations of the Cross with Us, way of the Cross, station 9

Priest or Leader: Consider how Jesus Christ fell for the third time. He was extremely weak and the cruelty of His executioners was excessive; they tried to hasten His steps though He hardly had strength to move.

- moment of silence -

All: My Jesus, by the weakness You suffered in going to Calvary, give me enough strength to overcome all human respect and all my evil passions which have led me to despise Your friendship. I love You, Jesus my Love, with all my heart; I am sorry for ever having offended You. Never permit me to offend You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me as You will.

A painting of Jesus by Titian
Mater Dolorosa painting by Murillo

Make me feel as thou hast felt;

Make my soul, to glow and melt,

With the love of Christ, my Lord.
