<\/p>\n
Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n O Lord, it is 2:33 on Wednesday, October 24, 2018, at Our Lady of La Vang church. We came here to attend the Celebration of Our Lady of La Vang. The past few days, in Your blessing and with Mother’s intercession, there were wonderful things that we experienced at this place. Today is the last day we come here, to visit Mother, to pray to St. Joseph to intercede for us, and to meditate on the 14 Stations of the Cross.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n O Lord, if I remember correctly, three years ago we prayed the 14 Stations of the Cross at Lourdes, France. We wept and we felt a closeness as if You walked through the 14 Stations of the Cross, to remind us that our lives were exchanged by the everlasting doctrine in Your infinite love. Now together we prostrate to ask You to have mercy on us and to give us the opportunity to meditate on the 14 Stations of the Cross in the great work of salvation that You granted to mankind for each person to exist today. Lord, please hear our prayers as we respectfully lift up the first prayer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n O Lord Jesus, we long to meditate on Your 14 Stations of the Cross to respectfully lift up our gratitude to You. If only we can visit those places in Jerusalem to beg for the graces from the Cross. We are like the lost sheep.\u00a0 Let us, therefore, make the Stations of the Cross and imprint into our hearts the sufferings that the Lord Jesus endured, to comfort us in this place of exile, for us to rely on these 14 Stations like a staircase that leads us to heaven. Let us sing praises to the Lord Jesus forever and ever. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n -We adore You and we praise You O Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n -Because by Your holy Cross You have redeemed the world.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The <\/strong>First Station<\/strong>: <\/strong>Jesus is <\/strong>C<\/strong>ondemned to <\/strong>D<\/strong>eath<\/strong> by Pilate.<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord Jesus, You are the King of heaven and earth, the long-awaited Supreme Being, but whom Pilate condemned to a shameful death. Please grant me the grace to repent to deserve to be saved by You in the future court of judgment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus:<\/strong><\/p>\n My beloved children, I am looking at you and the sorrows that the world causes to My heart today are reduced. My waiting continues. My patience continues. I hope you understand what I do for you – the humiliations and the agonies I endured on the Way of the Cross. I accept the sentence even though I know it comes with a humiliating disgrace, and I still seek ways to save you, to change a wicked and unjust world of those who have functions as well as all the famous and talented people, who forget about fairness, human reasoning and the conscience with justice and truth.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today I want to evoke over you so you will know that I always longingly await for the children to spend a few moments to come to Me, because in the moment you suffer the most, this is the moment you are closest to Me. Do not let yourselves be negative. Do not let yourselves lose hope. You still have Me, because I accepted to endure everything for you to live, to be happy, and to have a perfect life. Never forget that in this Way of the Cross. I endure, I replace you, and I want you to live a new life, to live a life of justice and righteousness, and to live with the truth that I bring to you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Never be disappointed. Remember that God continues to be close and grants you everything. Until the last drop of blood, I still look for ways to cleanse your souls. Today I want you to remember this: at the places you visit, through the Stations of the Cross, though to the world they are only the stones of the past, of history, I am still lively. When someone comes to commemorate My Stations of the Cross, I respond, and I let you feel the liveliness of what I want you to understand. It is because of your sake that I do everything and seek all kinds of ways to save you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n L<\/strong>ucia<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord, I thank You. We are unworthy and do not deserve this moment. But it is not a coincidence for You to remind us on the path, whether success or failure, You are still the Lord who awaits the return of mankind. Our hearts ought not only to be devoted to one another, but we must love Him for us to hear His voice and His teaching. May we believe in an absolute way for us to have Him by our side when we suffer. Whether success or failure, He plans, He reminds. We will never lose hope.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Father, please accept our Kowtow with a grateful heart, on behalf of today’s world, in stubbornness, in hardheartedness, in a life of trouble and blindness, to lose faith and hope. You still wait, because, in every Station of the Cross and the sentence of death, it is the death of the old self, the death of sin, for a new person to be reborn and resurrect with You. That is what we ask of You, to accept from us the Kowtow that we reverently offer in a spirit of repentance and gratitude. It is the first Station of the Cross that we reverently offer to You. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Second<\/strong> Station<\/strong>: <\/strong>Jesus <\/strong>Carries the Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord Jesus, You were cruelly scourged and You carried the heavy cross for our sins. Please grant us the grace to endure sufferings like the Cross that the Father intended for us to endure, to follow faithfully in the Lord Jesus’ footsteps.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n J<\/strong>esus<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n O children, I accept to carry the Cross. I accept to carry the Cross to support you. I accept to be scourged. I accept for My body to be broken all over, the weight of sin. I endure all the sufferings when the Cross weighs down on My shoulder, but I do not consider it a Cross, because I am carrying you, each person, one by one. I am carrying each person, with the heart of My love. I am carrying all the burdens with the short-sighted view of mankind. I am carrying all the hearts and each soul that lack faith or reject the works that I did. I carry everything in the hope for each one of you to have a happy and secure future. I do what is best for you. I accept to carry the Cross for you to not suffer torture, to not endure all the pain from the weakness as you rejected and are rejecting Me.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n First of all, I knew you are the people who are living in a world with much turmoil, a life with many lures, a life with competitions, a life of gratification of lust, a life with greed, with selfishness, all and all. But I want only one thing; I want to come to save you. I want to come to carry the heavy cross of mankind’s sins for you. I want the Cross for you to become reformed, for you to become perfected. Rely on Me for you to walk. Rely on that doctrine for you to be protected, to be sheltered, and to live with days of happiness. I wait for your maturity and for you to grow up.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n O Children, grief forever lingers in Me. I wait for each person, one by one. I wait for each soul, for you to know of this significance, this Cross, I carry for each one of you. I carry for each sinner. I carry for you to become penitents, witnesses, and become the saints that I long for you to be.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord, I thank You for giving us something infinite and immeasurable. If we did not stop at this place, then we certainly would not understand the liveliness that every time we do the Stations of the Cross, You are always lively for us to have the experience and the moments as You grant and give us the opportunity, for us to awaken, to look back at ourselves and our shortcomings. We were exchanged by the price of Your Blood, by Your salvation, by Your agonizing Cross, for us to continue and exist till this day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n May we recognize our imperfections and weaknesses, with a heart in contrition and repentance. God, please accept this earnest Kowtow, with a grateful and thankful heart. We apologize to God, the Supreme Being who grants salvation, the Supreme Being who walked the Way of the Cross for us to have good days like today. God, please embrace us, hear us, forgive us, sanctify us, for us to understand the meaning of the Second Station of the Cross because You carry the Cross for us and for our sins. May we amend our lives. May God sanctify us for us to live worthy as His children, redeemed at the price of Blood. \u00a0Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Third<\/strong> Station<\/strong>: <\/strong>Jesus <\/strong>Falls to the Ground for the First Time.<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord Jesus, You endured many sufferings, You were hungry, and carried the heavy Cross. You were exhausted and fell to the ground. Please grant me the grace to be preserved till death, lest I commit sin and displease my Lord’s heart.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus: <\/strong><\/p>\n My beloved children, I endure the sufferings, the hunger, the heavy Cross. Though I fall to the ground, I still try to get up for Me to hold you, because you are the people who cannot stand up, if without My hands, if without the Lord to see the burdens, the sufferings as you lived and are living in iniquity. It is a rope that tightly binds you, but you cannot see that rope, because your faith is so immature and in life you do not accept what is to be learned and understood with My sacrifice. Thus, I come to deliver you. I accept to come to Calvary. I accept to suffer till death. I hope, through My acceptance, to save your souls. The soul is priceless, because God the Father created you, and only that soul is worthy to enter into the place that God the Father planned for each child.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Since mankind was free in their decision, sin raged, destroyed, and caused you to end up with a barrier that prevents you to see what I grant. Today I come to endure and allow you to see that it is because of sin that I accept everything, to save you, to lead you out of the siege that tightly binds you by the death of that sin. I want you to see Me fall. I fall for the first time. I fall for the first time to lift you up. I hold you and I guide you to walk with Me. With the days that I desire, restore what belongs to you that I grant, because I exchange everything for you to live, for you to understand the meaning and practice, for you to have the doctrine that you greatly need in life.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My beloved children, I have tens of thousands of things I want to say to you. Today I see your souls, the flow of tears, the sobbing hearts, with what you do and what you did. You seek a place where people forgot Me, so you come to a deserted place; you come to the places where you prayed. You come to visit Me, to commemorate the Passion that though over 2,000 years ago, is still lively, waiting for the children. When the children come to visit Me, it is a source of comfort for Me. Today I look at you, and even if one more time, I still accept to come to the world to die once more to save you. For My sake, become a new person. \u00a0For My sake, accept things that today are against your wishes. For My sake, hold each other’s hands, love each other, and remove the ego and personality, for you to live again in the love that I granted to you through the first fall for Me to hold you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord, we thank You. All the blessings You granted us through this Third Station of the Cross. Without meditation, how can we understand the love You grant us? It is a great sacrifice, to help us mature and to have this day. We are still ungrateful human beings. Father, please have mercy on us, please forgive us, please teach us, for us to belong to You, as these words touched our souls, as these words receive the forgiveness. Father, please have mercy on us. May we reverently offer the Kowtow in a spirit of gratitude and thanksgiving, at the 3rd Station, where the Lord Jesus falls for the first time. We reverently lift up with a repentant heart to ask You to forgive us, for us to start, from now on, to mature in the meaning of each Station of the Cross, to learn, to listen, to be taught, to practice in our lives, to listen to Your words, to change our lives, to try harder to overcome weak habits, to deserve to be Your children. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Fourth Station: Mother <\/strong>Mary <\/strong>M<\/strong>e<\/strong>ets the <\/strong>Lord <\/strong>Jesus C<\/strong>arrying the Cross.<\/strong><\/p>\n O Blessed Mother, when Your child was born, the angels sang and rejoiced. Now looking at Your Son’s broken body, in the hands of the soldiers who are going to kill Him, Your heart suffers as if pierced by swords. Blessed Mother, please intercede for us to repent, and pray for sinners to return to the Father.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n B<\/strong>lessed Mother<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n My beloved children, today the Fourth Station evokes in Me the witnessing over 2,000 years ago when I met the Lord who carried the Cross, bathed in blood. I looked back to the days when Jesus was born; He was a child that looked like an angel. The angels sang and rejoiced. The angels praised jubilantly the day God came into the world. But today His body is covered with blood. On His shoulder was the heavy Cross. His eyes were seeking someone to rely on, as He was lonely, abandoned by mankind.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n O Children, you can understand how broken My heart is, to see the Lord in such great pain and writhing. Writhing not only because of the wounds, from being scourged and from being tortured, but writhing because of the abandonment by mankind, by His children, by the people with whom He sat in the synagogue daily to teach about the doctrine. He also did many miracles to heal them. However, people, because of self-interest, selfishness, jealousy, and iniquity, could no longer see the gentle God, the God who gave them the depth to see the good things He brought with the doctrine. They mercilessly condemned Him who was innocent. Though My heart is in agony and writhing, I do not blame, because I know this is God the Father’s plan. Jesus must accept those sufferings, for you to have this day, for hope to remain throughout generations, for people to awaken and return, for people to recognize what He did for each one of you, and for each soul in this world.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today the world still has not yet awakened. I am heartbroken, but I continue. I do not give up, because God does not give up, then I cannot give up. I continue. So today what you know, what you bravely do, what you believe, today, that is the truth. Be steadfast in the faith. Have absolute trust. Understand that what you have today is granted by heaven. Live a life of witness. Remove thoughts of negativity, of shortsightedness. Act on behalf of the world, speak the words taught by the Holy Spirit, live as instructed, to console God through each Station of the Cross that today you meditate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Be with Me to continue to lead your brothers and sisters back. It is only when you meditate will you see God’s love, His suffering, and His infinite love granted to each generation, to each one of you today. Be mature. Trust, for your paths to bring many brothers back to God. God does not need offerings. God does not need any gifts. God only needs people today to recognize Him, to return to Him, with a repentant heart. That is what He yearns through each Station of the Cross that you meditate on their behalf.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Mother Mary, in this Fourth Station of the Cross, You met God. You are in so much pain, Your heart is broken. God also suffers, alone, and lost among the crowd of people who are screaming, beating, cursing, tormenting. He only looks toward You, He only looks at You.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus: <\/strong><\/p>\n O Mother, Mother, Where are You? I am in pain, because I love mankind, but mankind does not love Me. O Mother, Mother, Where are You? Your eyes strengthen me. Your eyes give me more strength, because I come to this world to save all humanity. My wounds will replace them in the pain of sin. O Mother, Mother, be with Me. Continue with Me along the way to Calvary. Only Your strength can help Me step forward and be strong. O Mother, O Mother!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord, Your words seem to kindle our souls, but each one of us is still making Your heart grieve. You are helpless, You are lost, You are lonely. We are the people who unintentionally betrayed, God, please forgive us, please accept us with the Kowtow in a spirit of penitence, with the Second Kowtow that we reverently offer to Mother. Mother, please forgive us. Mother, please accept us for us to have more time, for each one of us to make up for what we can. Let us come to the Eucharistic Jesus. Let us listen to the words from Mother to become witnesses. Today we are witnessing and we will witness. God, please hear our prayers on behalf of the world, in repentance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Fifth Station: Simon Helps the Lord Jesus Carry the Cross.<\/strong><\/p>\n When the soldiers saw Jesus exhausted as if near death, they forced Simon to help the Lord Jesus carry the Cross. Alas! Where are the sheep of God, to let the heavy Cross be carried by a pagan? Please grant me the grace, along with those who belong to me, to endure all ordeals, like helping the Lord Jesus carry the Cross.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus:<\/strong><\/p>\n My children, where are you? Daily I sit in the synagogue, I heal you, I bring the doctrine to everyone. Today I am tortured, scourged, and sentenced though innocent. I am watching to see if anyone thinks of Me, remembers Me, and sympathizes for Me. Today you saw the proof. I could no longer see with My swollen eyes. I was disfigured beyond recognition. You can no longer look at Me. For My yearning, there is only a pagan who reluctantly helps Me, who reluctantly carries with Me. But I seek you, I want to seek you who are the people who know Me, the people who used to accompany Me.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Please do not be indifferent toward Me. I am in so much pain. I am so lonely. I am so grief-stricken. I endure the sufferings of the body, but the suffering of the soul is so much more serious. So today I yearn and I desire for you to not be indifferent toward each other. Love each other. Do not treat Me and your brothers and sisters in this world with the indifference that became isolated, deserted, miserable, and negative. Today, even though an ignorant pagan, but I do not forget when they have the heart to look at My extreme suffering, even if only a greeting, even if only a few moments of help, I do not forget them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today I want you to understand this. Bond with each other. Love each other. Forgive the enemy. Give back what you can when there are people who come to your aid, even though they are not those with the same direction, with the same faith. You are the witnesses, the people who know the truth, and the people who understand My feeling. I expect you to be perfect in this mission. I bear everything. I accept everything. It is an irony for the Lord who accomplished everything for mankind, but in the end, those who are acquaintances, those who are close, are completely scared. There is no one nearby. In the end, even if that person is a stranger and only comes to Me once, he will be sanctified.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So, these are the works that I desire from you. I endure extreme sufferings, but I want you to live, to embrace those sufferings, in exchange for you to have a new doctrine, a new truth, a new teaching, and a new life. I want you to also unify. When you have the opportunity to witness to the pagans, to those who do not know but they have a heart, then devote yourselves to help them know what I do for you. My longing, My waiting, in the hope for those people to also return, reform, and fully recognize Me as the Lord who saves the entire humanity, without any distinction. So when you have the opportunity then witness, do the works that I yearn for from you, with the heart that you live with, the heart with which you experience, the heart that understands My revelation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n O God, I thank You. This Fifth Station of the Cross means many things in our lives. We are the people who directly or indirectly are the same. There are times when we greatly lack in our duty. Even though we are the children who truly belong in the family of the Church, but we come to God by life with the ego, the personality, the arrogance, the appearance, and many times, certainly You know. Today there is still disunity, there is no true love for God, then how can we be worthy to witness to the gentiles. What God reminds us is not only to witness to Christians, but we need to also witness to the gentiles for them to also have the opportunity to know God, because He accepts for a gentile to help Him carry the Cross. It is an opportunity for them to know God, to recognize God, and an opportunity for God to save them. Now Lord, please accept us with the Kowtow. In a spirit of thanksgiving and gratitude, we thank God for teaching us regarding the gentiles, the non-believers, for them to also have the opportunity to know, with our lives, when we practice as God teaches. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Sixth Station: Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus.<\/strong><\/p>\n I praise Veronica’s fearlessness who was not afraid of the soldiers and out of compassion for the Lord Jesus who was bathed in blood, gave Him her veil to wipe His Face. May the image of the Lord Jesus be imprinted in my heart as on Veronica’s veil, to wholeheartedly love Him.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus:<\/strong><\/p>\n My beloved children, I desire and yearn for you to learn by Veronica’s example, to be fearless, because the proof is the heart, the soul, the compassion, the trust, with which Veronica overcomes her fear; fearless even of the soldiers. It is a heart that empathizes, perceives, and reaches out with soul and heart. To come close to Me, she is not afraid of the blood, not afraid of the soldiers preventing her, not afraid of anything. She overcomes all of it to offer me the veil. It is a veil of kindness, a veil of courage, a proven veil of overcoming human fear, and also a veil that demonstrates the trust in the Supreme Being they believed in to overcome persecutions, to overcome fears, to overcome with the look and the eyes of faith that mankind still lacks, and is still immature, and still full of doubts.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My beloved children, all My blood has flowed out. The face with those sufferings that I want to leave imprinted on the veil are for those painful images to remind you, like a plea to you, for you to know that what I do is because I want to deliver you. I want to bring true peace between God, heaven, and earth. I want you to actually receive this, because it is through this that I offer you the extreme suffering, a face covered in blood, but with a steadfast and unflinching heart to walk the rest of the way. I want you to be the people to be deeply imprinted into My Face. Each drop of blood flowing from my forehead, from my eyes, from my nose, from my ears, from my mouth, my disfigured face is like a symbol of sin, deeply concealed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is because of that extreme that I bear for you, so deeply imprint into your souls a new face, a new life, a new love that I offer you. Do not let the world continue to lure. Do not allow fears. Do not let righteous deeds become silent deeds. Be brave and steadfast to walk in the midst of the world. Apply what you know, what you hear, what you experience, to live life, and inflame the souls of those who are seeking, who have sought, and for those who are still hardened and indifferent to be kindled by your faith.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lucia:<\/strong><\/p>\n O Lord, today I thank You for teaching us to be courageous, to follow the example of St. Veronica, to be fearless, to know what is from God that we must witness to. We must witness to the truth, and we must live with worthy days in the doctrine. In life, there is a lot of confusion between good and evil, right and wrong, so Father, please let us choose what belongs to You, honor You, and live a life worthy of the love You have for us. Father, please accept us with the Kowtow. As for the courage of St. Veronica, we are not like her, to offer You a veil, but we give You our souls, our bodies, our minds. In this era, though over 2,000 years, there are still people whose echoing voice awakened us, brought us closer to You. Let us bravely walk in the midst of the world, to honor Father, to glorify Father, to thank Father. He sacrificed and gave us the experience. He taught us and gave us strength, from the awakening love that He did for us. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Seventh Station: The Lord Jesus Falls for the Second Time.<\/strong><\/p>\n The afflictions the Lord Jesus suffered were increasing more. He tried to walk but fell one more time. The soldiers kicked and beat Him, to walk faster. May the Lord Jesus grant me the grace to be steadfast on the path of virtue, each day increasingly more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n – God, <\/strong>please <\/strong>have mercy on us. <\/strong><\/p>\n – Jesus Christ, please <\/strong>have mercy on us.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We adore <\/strong>You<\/strong> and <\/strong>we <\/strong>praise <\/strong>You, O Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n Because by <\/strong>Your<\/strong> holy <\/strong>C<\/strong>ross <\/strong>You have<\/strong> redeemed the world<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
