JESUS IS STRIPPED OF HIS CLOTHES

 

Presider:

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You . .

All:

(Genuflect)            Because by Your holy Cross You have redeemed the world.

Presider:

When they reach the top of the hill, before they crucify Him, they strip Jesus of His garments.  All that is of the material world is taken from Him.

“They divided my clothes among them, and upon my garments they cast lots.”  How willing are we to strip from our lives 

those people or possessions, those words or actions, those habits or addictions that prevent us from imitating Christ? 

Let us pray . . .

All:

(Kneel)            Jesus, / strip from us those desires that keep us from you. / Give us a poorness in spirit that allows us to be rich in your love. / 

Strengthen us to root out everything that make us inattentive to You.

All:

(Stand)             Pierced the hands that blessed and cured us, Pierced the feet that walked to free us, Walked the hill of Calvary.
