The Te Deum Laudamus

We praise Thee O God, we acknowledge Thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship Thee, the Father Everlasting.
To Thee all the angels cry aloud, the heavens and all the powers therein;
To Thee cherubim and seraphim continually do cry;
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full of the majesty of Thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles praise Thee
The goodly fellowship of the prophets praise Thee;
The noble army of martyrs praise Thee;
The holy Church though all the world doth acknowledge Thee;
The Father of an infinite majesty; Thine adorable true and only Son,
Also the Holy Ghost, the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, O Christ.
Thou are the everlasting Son of the Father.
When Thou tookest upon Thee to deleiver man;
Thou didst humble Thyself to be born of a virgin.
When Thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death,
Thou didst open the kingdom of heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God
In the glory of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come
To be our judge.
We therefore pray Thee to help Thy servants,
Whom Thou hast redeemed with Thy precious blood.
Make them to be numbered with Thy saints
In glory everlasting.
O Lord, save Thy people and bless Thine heritage.
Govern them and lift them up forever.
Day by day we magnify Thee,
And we worship Thy name ever, world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin,
O Lord have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us,
O Lord, let Thy mercy be upon us, as our trust is in Thee.
O Lord, in Thee have I trusted; let me never be confounded

“I agree with you, but I’m “hoping” because he lives his life more like a Franciscan: small apartment, instead of the bishop’s residence and cooks his own meals.
:)”

Onyx, I like him already. May God bless him!

I wanted an Italian, traditional Pope. :) Imho, wisdom is far more important than youth. I’m happy!

There’s nothing wrong with “bald”. Someone once said that it’s a sign of intelligence. :)

Can we now say “D’uh!” to all those St. Mariachi’s Nostrodamus prophecies?

The Church has its own ‘redistribution’ issues, too much ‘wealth’ at the top?

Unimaginable wealth. However, those who reveal the information would be subject to Federal prosecution for violation of Federal privacy laws.

Thanks for your reply.

In my Peter the Roman post when I referred to Rome being destroyed, I was referring specifically to the Malachy Prophesy:

“In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.”

As I indicated, I’m not a proponent of or believer in this prediction.

HE PRACTICES WHAT HE PREACHES, that is undeniable. Not just for show. He’s the real deal. We expect the Pope to be an advocate for the poor, that is no surprise. Some say there’s a liberal ideology there, but on the other hand he is against same sex marriage. As far as Popes go, he fits the bill perfectly.

Is the new Pope’s name Francis I or Francis? I’ve heard both on TV.

“Reminds me of the Cardinal during King Henry VIII reign.”

You may be thinking of Cardinal Wolsey? He certainly learned the error of his ways. He ended up being accused of treason and died of poor health, conveniently before he was executed. In his final days it’s reported that he said, “If I had served my God as diligently as I did my king, He would not have given me over in my grey hairs.”

We learn much from history...
