Fifth Sorrowful Mystery


The last surrender
Giving life from death
Obedient love though rent asunder
Commending every breath




God bless,

Fourth Sorrowful Mystery



Embraced the wood
Heavy from my guilt
Hardened from my faults
And, O Flower, you did not wilt


God bless,

Third Sorrowful Mystery


Adorned by thorns, great king
A rose you are, yet thorns we gave
And mocked you in your pain
That you accepted as the price to save



God bless,

Second Sorrowful Mystery


Pillar stained by blood
Chains that held you down
Scourged for us all
As your blood soaked in the ground


God bless,

First Sorrowful Mystery


Among olives, blood
By anxiety overcome
Praying for relief
To your will, I succumb



God bless,

Crucifixion and Death of Jesus

Our Father, who art in heaven, may your kingdom come
Through the example of Jesus and Mary's 'Thy will be done'.


Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

Carrying of the Cross

He walks in pain and sorrow carrying our deadened souls
Though we are His cross He carries us with unending love
He continues moving while His body is plagued with holes
He continues moving with no help from above


Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

Crowning of Thorns


A crown of thrones, a king of fools
Fools who mock and humble their God
Who fail to praise, give glory or laud
Laughing while the Man's blood pools


Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

Scourging at the Pillar

We seem to have an infinite capacity for pain
Though the amount of blood to lose is finite
Our blood would cause a speck of this world to stain
And it is just as temporary as the night


Jesus, Son of the living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

Agony in the Garden

He stops with the memory of an event that soon proceeds.
The pain is remembered in body, in mind
His blood pours out as the stress starts to grind
But He decides to obey, and because of that, He leads.

Jesus, Son of the living God, have mercy upon me a sinner.
