The "Seven Last Words" are the seven last phrases spoken by our Savior as he hung for three hours dying upon the Cross.
The First Word - Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. (Luke 23:34)
The Second Word - Amen I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise. (Luke 23:43)
The Third Word - When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he love, he said to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. After that, he said to the disciple: Behold thy mother. (John 19:26-27)
The Fourth Word - Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani? That is, My God, my God, why hast thouh forsaken me? (Matthew 27:24)
The Fifth Word - I thirst. (John 19:28)
The Sixth Word - It is finished. (John 19:30)
The Seventh Word - Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. (Luke 23:46)
