The Feast of Christ the King
Alleluia, King eternal,
Lord omnipotent we own;
Alleluia, Born of Mary,
Earth Your foot-stool, heaven Your throne.
Alleluia, Not as orphans
Are we left in sorrow now;
Alleluia, He is near us:
Faith believes, nor questions how.
Though the cloud from sight received Him
When the earthly days were over,
Shall our hearts forget His promise:
I am with you ever-more?
