Jesus dies on the Cross
We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
Because by Thy Holy Cross Thou hast redeemed the World.
 Jesus, crying out in a loud voice, said,
“Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” And having said this, he breathed his last. This is the Gospel passage which recalls the hour of supreme sacrifice. Love in all its beauty has reached a climax; the lover has given his life for his beloved.
Lord, you are the Suffering Servant. You preached peace and reconciliation,
yet, you were treated like a fool, with utter disrespect with blows & beatings,
stripped of everything, abandoned by all, dying the death of a slave.
O Jesus, Wounded Healer, we place our trust in you;
your entry into glory is our hope of heaven.
Let us know your peace at the hour of death.
May we be prepared and willing to go
when you call us from this world to our eternal home in heaven.
Let us proclaim the Mystery of Faith.
Dying you destroyed our death.
Rising you restored our life
Never permit me to separate myself from thee againGrant that I may love thee always and then do with me as thou wilt.
I love Thee Jesus, my love above all things;
I repent with my whole heart for having offended Thee.
Never permit me to separate myself from Thee again.
Grant that I may love Thee always and then do with me what Thou wilt |
