Procession 1:

Cross He carried on shoulders
As He came out from the fort
Hebrew women assembled
Weeping and wailing for Him
Holy Mother stood afar
With her kin waiting for Him
Overcome with grief and pain.
Like a dove she moaned and cried,
“Where, where are they taking you
My Son, my beloved one?
O, why Thou did Thyself give
Unto these unrighteous ones?
My Son, my beloved One
O, what has befallen Thee?
Blessed is Thy lowliness
And passion all - for – our – sake.”


Procession 2:

Joseph, hailing from, land of A-rimathea
He was one righteous, and venera-ble.
Beseeching He came, unto Pi-late’s Court
Pleading for Jesus’, Body Di-vine
Body of Savior
Most Holy – Treasure
Grant Thou me, Ru-ler
I may bu - ry Him – my – self
Crucified was He, on a Cross by Jews
Give it unto me, for my de-light

Veneration of the Cross:

We – bow – be-fore Your Cross
That brought us salva-tion
And with the – thief we cry out
Christ remem-ber us when- You come
