When Your strength failed You,
Simon was there.
He carried Your cross.
Who was this man
who came to the aide of
my weary Lord?
With gratitude I remember
that he stood near your executioners
and accusers and offered his hands
and a strong back
in Your moment of need.
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
