Stations of the Cross 2021 by Fr Brian Kealey – 10
The Tenth Station
Jesus is stripped of his garments
We adore thee Oh Christ and we praise thee Because by thy holy cross thou hast redeemed the world
First Voice Part of the ritual of humiliation Is this stripping naked Back to Adam’s sin But here the sinless one Exposes our regret Confronts the shame We spend a lifetime covering
Second Voice Take from me each layer Remove the pretence The cloak of wealth The veneer of respectability The trappings of security In truth I have nothing but my love That Lord is all that I am have mercy on me a sinner
I love you Jesus My love above all things I regret with my whole heart of having offended thee Never permit me to separate myself from thee again Grant that I may love thee always and then do with me what thou will |
