An Act of Adoration to the Incarnate Word in the August Bosom of the Immaculate Virgin

O Word Divine, Incarnate for me, I adore Thee, and I love Thee with all my heart!Eternal Wisdom, come and teach us the way to Heaven!O King of kings, come and reign over the hearts of all men, particularly over mine!Come, all ye angels, all ye men; come, all creatures, and unite with me in adoring a God so humbled!O Holy Virgin, O Blessed St. Joseph, obtain for me such a great purity of heart that this Divine Infant may not be obliged to seek shelter in a stable on finding in my soul obstacles to His graces!May my heart be ever open to Him, may He make it His throne, and may all the powers of my soul be submissive to Him!Open, ye heavens! O Mary, give us our King and our Saviour!(Composed by Sr. Marie de St. Pierre)
