For the sins of His own nation
Saw Him hang in desolation
Till His spirit forth He sent.

Consider how the second fall of Jesus under His cross
renews the pain in all the wounds of the head and members of our
afflicted Lord.
My most gentle Jesus,
how many times You have forgiven me;
and how many times I have fallen again and begun again to offend You!
By the merits of this second fall,
give me the grace to persevere in Your love until death.
Grant, that in all my temptations, I may always have recourse to You.
I love You, Jesus, my Love, with all my heart;
I am sorry that I have offended You.
Never let me offend You again.
Grant that I may love You always;
and then do with me as You will.
