The Tenth Station - Jesus is Stripped of His Garments
	V. We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You. R. Because by Your holy Cross, You have redeemed the world. Meditate: Consider the violence with which the executioners stripped Jesus. His inner garments adhered to His torn flesh, and they dragged them off so roughly that the skin came with them. Compassionate your Saviour thus cruelly treated, and say to Him: Pray: My innocent Jesus, by the merits of the torment You have felt, help me to strip myself of all affection to things of earth, in order that I may place all my love in You, who are so worthy of my love. I love You, O Jesus, with my whole heart; I repent of having offended You. Never permit me to offend You again. Grant that I may love You always; and then do with me what You will. Recite: Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Unto Christ, with pure emotion, Raise my contrite heart's devotion, Love to read in every wound.
