| Jesus falls the first time
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.
Because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
Here, here on Calvary's way
Jesus falls the first time.
Not yet exhausted, still alert to every pain,
still quickened by the lash.
Tripped on a stone, perhaps.
Or stunned by a soldier's blow.
Jesus struggles, he stands, he moves along.
Weakened, prodded, cursed, and fallen,
His whole Body bruised and swollen,
Jesus tripped and lay in pain.
