Ode to Jesus, King of Virtues
Oh Jesus, King of Faith
Thou are sent by God the Great
Thy Spirit is our greatest soulmate
Oh Jesus, King of Hope
Thou grant us light with no scope
Thy Sacred Heart's fire never says nope
Oh Jesus, King of Charity
Thou are the spring of generosity
Thy heart is overflowing with mercy
Oh Jesus, King of Prudence
Thou guard us against malevolence
Thy rod is our guide to benevolence
Oh Jesus, King of Justice
Thou strike the sinners with right chastise
Thy judgment is free of any malice
Oh Jesus, King of Fortitude
Thou help us form proper attitude
Thy strength endures great magnitude
Oh Jesus, King of Temperance
Thou give to evil no single chance
Thy purity must have resemblance.
