May the peace and joy  

of the Divine Child Jesus 

abide in your heart.

Jesus, hear us.  Jesus, answer us.

Happy are those who come to Jesus.

Gloria in excelsis Deo!

Subjected to the same suffering,

the same reward awaits us.

The same love unites us,

The same hope encourages us.

 

It is good is to be with Jesus.

The Child Jesus came to us under the aspect 

most sweet and most charming.

Let us ask His Holy Mother  

that we may learn to serve Him with faithfulness.
