Jesus, Divine Infant, my companion, confidant and friend,
I come eagerly and often to unite myself closely to You.
Your church shall be my Bethlehem, the altar, the crib;
bread and wine, the swaddling clothes by which
I can recognize You as my God.
I take You into my arms as Mary, Joseph
and the shepherds did in adoration to You,
my Savior and Messiah.
O Jesus Divine Infant, have mercy on us.
