Prayer is Love, I want to Love

9. Jesus Falls a Third Time

STATION IX

Small Violet Cross

Genuflect:
V: We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You
R: Because, by Your holy cross, You have redeemed the world.

Ninth Station: Jesus Falls a Third Time.

Stand:
V: Consider the third fall of Jesus Christ. His weakness was extreme, and the cruelty of His executioners excessive, who tried to hasten His steps when He had scarcely strength to move.

Kneel:
All: Ah, my outraged Jesus, by the merits of the weakness Thou didst suffer in going to Calvary, give me strength sufficient to conquer all human respect and all my wicked passions, which have led me to despise Thy friendship.

I love Thee Jesus, my love, with my whole heart. I repent of having offended Thee. Never permit me to offend Thee again. Grant that I may love Thee always; and then do with me what Thou wilt.

Prayers: Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

V: Lord Jesus Crucified R: Have Mercy on us.

Hymn: Stabat Mater Stanza
Small Violet Cross

All: Sing or Say:
O thou Mother, fount of love,
touch my spirit from above,
make my heart with thine accord.

V: Have Mercy on Us, O Lord. R: Have Mercy on Us
