II STATION - JESUS RECEIVES THE CROSS ON HIS SHOULDERS
We worship you oh Christ and we bless you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. (genuflection)
Reading:
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium, and they gathered the
whole battalion before him. And they stripped him and put a scarlet robe upon him, and plaiting
a crown of thorns they put it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before
him they mocked him saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" And they spat upon him, and took the
reed and struck him on the head. And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe,
and put his own clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him. (Mat 27:27-31).
So they took Jesus, and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of
a skull, which is called in Hebrew Gol'gotha. (John 19:17)
If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and
follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake he
will save it. (Luke 9:23-24).
A moment of prayer, kneeling.
All stand: Let us pray.
Lord, in your love you have taken the cross upon yourself for us, carrying our sins; grant
that our cross may be day by day a way of conversion and salvation.
You who live and reign for ever and ever.
Amen.
Song: O Jesus, my love.
II ESTACIÓN - JESÚS RECIBE LA CRUZ EN SUS HOMBROS
Te adoramos oh Cristo y te bendecimos.
Porque por tu santa cruz redimiste al mundo. (genuflexión)
Lectura:
Los soldados del gobernador llevaron a Jesús al pretorio y reunieron a toda la guardia
alrededor de él. Entonces lo desvistieron y le pusieron un mano rojo.Luego tejieron una corona
de espinas y la colocaron sobre su cabeza, pusieron una caña en su mano derecha y, doblando
la rodilla delante de él, se burlaban, diciendo: «Salud, rey de los judíos». Y escupiéndolo, le
quitaron la caña y con ella le golpeaban la cabeza.Después de haberse burlado de él, le quitaron
el manto, le pusieron de nuevo sus vestiduras y lo llevaron a crucificar. (Mateo 27: 27-31)
Jesús, cargando sobre sí la cruz, salió de la ciudad para dirigirse al lugar llamado «del
Cráneo», en hebreo «Gólgota». (Juan 19:17)
Después dijo a todos: «El que quiera venir detrás de mí, que renuncie a sí mismo, que
cargue con su cruz cada día y me siga. Porque el que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá y el que
pierda su vida por mí, la salvará. (Lucas 9:23-24).
Un momento de oración, arrodillado.
Todos están de pie: Oremos:
Señor, en tu amor has tomado la cruz por nosotros, llevando nuestros pecados;
concédenos que nuestra cruz sea día a día una forma de conversión y salvación.
Que vive y reina por los siglos de los siglos.
Amén.
Canción: Oh Jesús, mi amor
