While emperors abuse you, and people shrug or stare, and dark injustice troubles the ones for whom you care, your mighty grace arises, and hidden from our sight, enfolds all living beings in your triumphant light. O Jesus, wounded Sovereign, I pray, give me the nerve without this world’s armor to love and bless and serve. My master and companion, rule all eternity with grace and deep compassion, and, Lord, begin with me. -
