Beneath the Cross of Jesus

澳門 Macau view map

大堂前地
Largo da Sé square in front of Catedral Igreja da Sé (Cathedral of the Nativity of Our Lady).
The cathedral and this square are on the UNESCO list of World Heritage sites.

The letter INRI is the Latin abbrivation meaning "Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews"


Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty rock within a weary land;
a home within the wilderness, a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat, and the burden of the day.

Upon that cross of Jesus mine eye at times can see
the very dying form of One who suffered there for me;
and from my stricken heart with tears two wonders I confess:
the wonders of redeeming love and my unworthiness.

-- Elizabeth Clephane
