What tender mourning! Jesus' lifeless body lies in his mother's arms. He has truly died. A profound sacrifice, complete. |

adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. |
| Previous Station | I behold this scene
at the foot of the cross. I contemplate touching, caressing his body.
I remember all his hands have touched, all who have been blessed by his
warm embrace.
I pause to let it soak in. He knows the mystery of death. He has fallen into God's hands. For me. That I might love as I have been loved. I pour out my heart to the God of all mercies. |
