Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus |
|||||
| V. | We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you. | ||||
| R. | Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world | ||||
| Leader: |
Consider how the holy woman, Veronica, seeing Jesus in such distress, with His face bathed with sweat and blood, offered Him a towel, and how, in drying Himself with it, our Lord left His sacred image impressed upon it. |
||||
| All: |
My beloved Jesus, your face was beautiful before; yet, on this journey it no longer appears beautiful but disfigured with wounds and blood. Alas! My soul also was once beautiful, when it received your grace in baptism, but I have since then disfigured it with my sins. You alone, my Redeemer, can restore it to its former beauty. Do this by your Passion! |
