Jesus is nailed to the Cross
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you:
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
When they came to the place which is called The Skull, there
they crucified him; and with him they crucified two criminals, one
on the right, the other on the left, and Jesus between them. And the
scripture was fulfilled which says, "He was numbered with the transgressors."
V.
They pierce my hands and my feet:
R. They stare and gloat over me.
Let us pray.
(Silence)
Lord Jesus Christ,
you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that
everyone might come within
the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that
we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know
you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.
Holy
God,
Holy and Mighty,
Holy Immortal One,
Have mercy upon us.
