FOURTEENTH STATION

Jesus is Laid in the Sepulcher

V. We adore Thee O Christ and we praise Thee.
R. Because by Thy holy Cross Thou
hast redeemed the world.

THE body of Jesus is interred in a stranger's
sepulcher. He, who in this world had nothing
upon which to rest His head, would not even
have a grave of His own, because He was not
from this world. You, who are so attached to the
world, henceforth despise it, that you may not
perish with it.

O Jesus, Thou has set me apart from the world;
what then, shall I seek therein? Thou hast created
me for Heaven; what then, have I to do with the
world? Depart from me, deceitful world, with thy

vanities! Henceforth I will follow the Way of the
Cross traced out for me by my Redeemer,
and journey onward to my heavenly
home, there to dwell forever and ever.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be.
 V. Have mercy on us, Lord.
R. Have mercy on us.
V. May the souls of the faithful
departed, through the mercy of God,
rest in peace.
R. Amen
