Lord Jesus Christ, take me along that holy way you once took to your death, Take my mind, my memory, above all my reluctant heart, and let me see what you once did for love of me and all the world.

We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.

Because by your Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world.

Second Station: Jesus Receives His Cross

Ours were the sufferings he bore, ours the sorrows he carried. But we thought of him as someone punished, struck by God, and brought low. Yet he was pierced through for our faults, crushed for our sins. On him lies a punishment that brings us peace, and through his wounds we were healed. – Isaiah 53:4-5
