My Lord Jesus Christ, Thou hast made this journey (to the Cross) to die for me with love unutterable, and I have so many times unworthily abandoned Thee; but now I love You with my whole heart, and because I love Thee, I repent sincerely for ever having offended Thee.

Pardon me, my God, and permit me to accompany Thee on this journey. Thou dost go to die for love of me; I wish also, my beloved Redeemer, to die for love of Thee. My Jesus, I will live and die always united to Thee.
