The Stations of the Cross

XI: Jesus is Nailed to the Cross

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You. (Genuflect)

Because, by Your holy cross, You have redeemed the world. (Rise)

Meditation and Prayer

Consider Jesus, thrown down upon the cross, He stretched out His arms and offered to His eternal Father the sacrifice of His life for our salvation. They nailed His hands and feet, and then, raising the cross, left Him to die in anguish. (Kneel)

My despised Jesus, nail my heart to the cross that it may always remain there to love You and never leave You again.

I love You, Jesus, my Love, above all things. I repent with my whole heart for having offended You. Never permit me to separate myself from You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me as You will.

Our Father

Hail Mary

Glory Be to the Father
