A Prayer To Christ The King Lyrics
A Prayer To Christ The King Lyrics
Almighty And Everlasting God,
After You Had Created Heaven
And Earth, And All The Living
Beings, Plants And Animals,
Then You Created Man.
You Made Him King Of Your
Whole Creation.
You Put Everything In The
Whole Round World At His
Disposal.
You Gave To Him Alone,
Of All The Creatures On
This Earth, The Power To
Think And The Power To Will.
Everything Else Was Made
To Serve Man.
Then, When Man Sinned,
You Sent Your Son To Be
The King Of Mankind, And
The Redeemer Of The Human
Race.
He Is Now King,
Not Only Of Mankind,
But Of The Whole Universe.
He Is The “firstborn Of
Every Creature.”
He Is Our King,
And Everything That We
Have Is Made And Given
Us To Serve Him.
We Are To Use It,
Not In Selfishness And Greed,
But In Gratitude And Generosity,
Realizing That We Are All Subjects
Of The Great King Jesus.
Help Us To Keep This In Mind,
As We Plough His Fields,
Lent To Us For A Time,
And As We Reap His Crops,
Given To Us By His Generous Hand.
Help Us To Use With Care The
Goods He Here Gives Us, So
That We May Gain The Eternal
Goods That He Has Won For Us.
Help Us Always And Everywhere
To Be Good, Loyal Subjects Of
Christ, Our King, So That We
May Be With Him, Our Victor And
King, Forever In Heaven.
Amen.
