LET US PRAY.
O LORD Jesus! who hast vouchsafed to debase the sublimity of thy incarnate divinity and of thy most divine humanity to the humble state of birth and infancy; mercifully grant, that acknowledging thy divine wisdom in thy infancy, thy power in thy weakness, thy majesty in thy littleness, we may adore thee little and debased on earth, and behold thee great and exalted in heaven: who livest and reignest world without end. Amen.
May the Infant Jesus Christ hear us, now, and for ever. Amen.
