Stations of the Cross - Fourteenth Station 

Jesus is laid in the tomb

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

Scripture

“They laid him in a rock-hewn tomb, where no one had ever yet been laid. It was the Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. The women who had come with him from Galilee followed, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid; then they returned and prepared spices and ointments.”

 

A Prayer

My Jesus, Lord, 
You know my spirit is willing
as my flesh is weak.

The teaching you could not impart,
the sufferings you could not bear,
the works of love you could not do
in your short life on earth, 
let me impart,
and bear,
and do through you.

But I am nothing, Lord.
Help me!
