4. He peered into the eyes <strong>of</strong> His beloved Mother <strong>and</strong> she peered into<br />
His eyes. There was joy at the meeting <strong>of</strong> the eyes, but such sorrow<br />
deep within each <strong>of</strong> Their Hearts. They knew each other deeply in<br />
Their Hearts <strong>and</strong> how she had held Him <strong>and</strong> loved Him! He saw her<br />
in such suffering! He saw her face with tears. He saw His most precious<br />
Mother torn so deeply in her heart. It is the love <strong>of</strong> Their Hearts<br />
<strong>for</strong> us that has led us to this place. We must spread His love throughout<br />
the world. He would carry His cross this day <strong>for</strong> us because He loves<br />
us so dearly. God came to earth <strong>and</strong> was born a man out <strong>of</strong> greatest<br />
love <strong>for</strong> us! We do not see clearly. We do not come to His altar to<br />
receive the life that He wants to outpour to us. We are so blind! Pray<br />
<strong>for</strong> grace! Pray <strong>for</strong> His life in us, to know <strong>and</strong> love all that we do not<br />
see. We do not see because we do not come to His altar, because we do<br />
not spend time with Him!<br />
5. Mary comes to lead us to His most tender Heart. He asks us to answer<br />
the call, the call <strong>of</strong> the Immaculate Heart <strong>of</strong> Mary <strong>and</strong> the Sacred<br />
Heart <strong>of</strong> Jesus, to be joined ever closer to Their Hearts brimming over<br />
with love <strong>for</strong> each <strong>and</strong> every soul.<br />
6. Jesus fell under His cross. The weight was so heavy! He did not give up<br />
His cross. He willingly carried this cross <strong>for</strong> love <strong>of</strong> us!<br />
7. It is in living in the Father’s will that you will be truly happy. To His<br />
very death He followed the will <strong>of</strong> the Father.<br />
8. Song: See the Eyes that Look at Mary<br />
9. See through the eyes <strong>of</strong> Mary. She peered into Jesus’ eyes on Calvary. See<br />
through her eyes the love <strong>of</strong> her precious Son, Jesus <strong>Christ</strong>. See that He<br />
truly walked to Calvary, that He was truly scourged <strong>and</strong> crowned with<br />
thorns, <strong>and</strong> that He did it <strong>for</strong> greatest love <strong>of</strong> each <strong>of</strong> us. He calls us to<br />
come <strong>and</strong> be with Him <strong>and</strong> to spread His love to this world.<br />
10. Song: Little Baby H<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> Feet<br />
The Crucifixion <strong>and</strong> Death <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
1. See the little h<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> Jesus. See the little feet <strong>of</strong> Jesus as Mary holds<br />
Him as a baby. Now she st<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> watches as they pound nails<br />
through His most precious h<strong>and</strong>s into the cross. The anguish in her<br />
heart is so deep! “<strong>and</strong> a sword will pierce your soul too—so that the secret<br />
thoughts <strong>of</strong> many may be laid bare.” (Lk. 2:35)<br />
2. Mary does not bear the wounds <strong>and</strong> the blood, as Jesus does, but<br />
Mary’s heart is torn to see her beloved Son, battered, bruised <strong>and</strong><br />
bloody, <strong>and</strong> now hanging on the cross!
