Preface for Christ the King: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 05:48, 24 November 2024

You anointed Jesus Christ, Your only Son,

with the oil of gladness,

as the eternal priest and universal king.

As priest He offered His life on the altar of the cross

and redeemed the human race by this one perfect sacrifice of peace.

As king He claims dominion over all creation,

that He may present to You, His almighty Father,

an eternal and universal kingdom:

a kingdom of truth and life,

a kingdom of holiness and grace,

a kingdom of justice, love, and peace.
