The following comes from a March 17 Angelus article:
Pro-life advocates will be praying for an end to abortion March 25 during a five-mile walk to Planned Parenthood, which begins at 8:30 a.m. from the parking lot of Sacred Heart Church at 10800 Henderson Road in Ventura.
A shuttle will follow the faithful to provide water and a ride for those who may need it. The shuttle will also provide transportation back to Sacred Heart after the walk.
Organizers welcome walkers to bring respect life signs, but nothing graphic as children will be present. Pro-life advocates young and old are welcome.
The walk — which takes place on Good Friday, the day the universal Church commemorates the passion and death of our Lord — will remember the millions of innocent lives lost to abortion.
For more information, please call Robert or Mary Bagdazian, (805) 525-9203.

This one properly mentions ‘Justice’ as the “Deepest Stroke that perched him”
Stricken, Smitten, and Afflicted,

Tis’ the Christ by man rejected,
yes my soul tis He, tis He
Tis the long Expected Prophet
David’s Son yet David’s Lord
By His Son, God now has spoken
Tis the True and Faithful Word
Tell me ye who hear Him groaning,
Was there ever grief like His
Friends, through fear
His cause disowning
Foes insulting his distress
Many hands were raised to wound Him
None would interpose to save
But the deepest stroke that pierced Him
Was the stroke that justice gave
Ye who think of sin but lightly
Nor suppose the evil great
