The Innocence of Christ the King


So many deny Christ His Rights as King. So many are seemingly unmoved by the sight of the innocent Infant King in the arms of His Blessed Mother Mary. 

Let us acknowledge Christ's rights as King and humbly submit ourselves to follow Him.

The wicked mob screams out:
“We don’t want Christ as king!,”
While we, with shouts of joy, hail
Thee as the world’s supreme King.*

*From the last verse of the Vesper's hymn for the Feast of Christ the King
