We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you. (Genuflect)
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
When they came to the place called “The Skull”, they crucified Jesus there, and the two criminals, one on his right and the other on his left. Jesus said, “Forgive them, Father! They don’t know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:33-34)
Prayer:
O Jesus, nailed to the cross, fasten our hearts there also, that they may be united to you until death shall strike us with its fatal blow, and with our last breath we shall surrender our soul to you.
Our Father.., Hail Mary.., Glory Be..
Have mercy on us, O Lord.
Have mercy on us.
Holy Mother, pierce me through!
In my heart, each wound renew,
Of my Savior crucified.
Pierced the hands that blessed and cured us,
Pierced the feet that walked to free us,
Walked the hill of Calvary.
