Christus Vincit!

Christ the King, Hubert van Eyck, c. 1426


Christus Vincit! Christus Regnat! Christus Imperat!    

Hear, O Christ, Salvation of the Holy and Perpetual Church of God. Help her, Redeemer of the World!
 
Saint Mary, help her! 
Saint Joseph, help her! 
Saint Michael, help her! 

Christus Vincit! Christus Regnat! Christus Imperat! 

Hear, O Christ, Grant Benedict, the Supreme Pontiff and Universal Pope, everlasting peace, life and salvation.  Help him, O Savior of the World. 

Saint Peter, help him!
Saint Paul, help him!

Christus Vincit! Christus Regnat! Christus Imperat! 

Christ our glory, our mercy, our help and our strength.  Christ our invincible arm, our impenetrable wall and the exaltation of our defense!

Christ our light, our way, and our life!  His alone is the kingdom!  Praise and jubilation through endless ages forever and ever! Amen.

May good times come!  May the peace of God come!  May Christ’s kingdom come! All redeemed by the blood of Christ: Rejoice! Thanks be to God! Amen.
 
Christus Vincit! Christus Regnat! Christus Imperat!
