"The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth"

From the Ex Cathedra Staff to the Ex Cathedra Community: A Merry Christmas, a blessed New Year and a great new decade for all of us.
God bless you and your family, my friends.

Keep praying, and here's to a new decade. God bless us all.

Lyrics, by William Chatterton Dix, 1865:

What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.

Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come peasant, king to own Him;
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

Raise, raise a song on high,
The Virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Our Lady of Akita, pray for us, for us undeserving children need it. Pray for us that Christ's church may be free from the smoke of satan. Pray for us, oh Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ our LORD.

Padre nuestro que estás en el cielo
Santificado sea tu nombre
Venga a nosotros tu rieno
Hágase tu voluntad en la tierra como en el cielo
Danos hoy nuestro pan de cada día
Y perdona nuestras ofensas como también nosotros perdonamos a los que nos ofenden
No nos dejes caer en la tentación
Y líbranos del mal
Amén


Merry Christmas to all of you people and let us pray for a new Christian decade. Deus Vult.

I have no words to adequately express how overjoyed and grateful I am to finally find a version of this hymn that doesn't either cut out the second verse entirely or replace the second half of it. God bless you and grant you a holy and fruitful Advent.
