-Second Station of the Cross-

Jesus Carries His Cross

Jesus was led away and carrying the cross by Himself,

went out to what is called the Place of the Skull, Golgotha.

You were led to Calvary, Lord,
carrying the cross by yourself.
Yet was the cross only yours,
or was it also mine you bore?
By your holy cross, O Jesus,
make me strong and able
to take up the cross I must bear.
