We come to adore you, O Christ,

in this Royal Epiphany 

which gathers at Your Feet 

all the Nations of the earth.

We hasten in the steps of the Magi,

for we also have seen the STAR

and we have come  running.

Glory to You, O our King!

King of Wisdom, of Power!

And above all, KING of LOVE!

It is to You 

that the STAR of our Vocation

has led us.

To adore You

on your Eucharistic throne, 

in this Divine Sacrament, 

Memorial of Your Birth, 

of Your Childhood, 

of Your Life, of Your Passion, 

of Your Death, and of Your Resurrection, 

as well as of Your glorious Ascension.  

There, 

in this mysterious and living heritage,

we truly have all the treasures

of Bethlehem, of Nazareth,

of Gethsemane and of Calvary.

 

Grant us therefore, O Divine King, 

to esteem these priceless riches 

that You have deigned

to call us to possess. 

So that we may make them fruitful,

through union with your most Sacred Heart,

to the Glory of the Most HOLY TRINITY.

Mary, 

Mother of Jesus 

and Queen of the Nations

receive us in the goodness of Your most Holy Heart,

as you received the joyous Magi Kings.

And as they were, prepare us 

to make known and to carry

the Name and the Love of the Lord Jesus

wherever it would please HIM to send us.

Saint Joseph, 

obtain for us your fidelity to grace 

and your profound humility.

For all the Nations of the earth

we adore You, O Lord!

For all the Nations of the earth 

we give you thanks, O Lord! 

For all the Nations of the earth 

we make reparation and due amends to You, O Lord!

For all the Nations of the earth 

we implore Your Mercy, Your Grace 

and Your Blessings, O Lord!

LORD JESUS, 

TAKE PITY ON US!

A M E N !
