TENTH STATION
Jesus is stripped of his clothes
Pr.:
We adore You, O
Christ, and we praise You.
(GENUFLECT)
All:
Because by your
holy Cross-You have redeemed the world.
Pr.:
They gave Jesus
wine to drink mixed with gall; but when he had tasted it, he would not
drink. Then after they had crucified him, they divided his clothes, casting
lots, to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet, "They divided my
clothes among them, and upon my garments they cast lots."
(Mt. 27, 34 to 35
)
(KNEEL AND PAUSE)
All:
Happy is the man
whom God chastises! / Do not reject the punishment of the almighty. / For he
wounds, but he binds up; he smites, but his hands give healing. / Insult has
broken my heart, and I am weak; / I looked for comforters, and I found none.
/ Rather they put gall in my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to
drink.
(Job 5, 17 to 18; & Ps. 68, 21 to 22)
Pr.:
Let us pray. Lord
Jesus Christ, stripped of every thing, You stood exposed to the jeers and
contempt, of the people whom You loved. Clothe us with genuine love of
others, so that nothing we suffer may ever fill our hearts with hatred or
bitterness.
All:
Amen.
(STAND)
Sing:
-
Pierced the hands that blessed and cured us,
-
Pierced the feet that walked to free us,
-
Walked the hill of Calvary.
