Chapter VI
Prayers of the Militia
Members of the Militia shall recite each day the Rosary of our Blessed Queen and Mother.
In addition they shall recite the following prayers:
Prayer to Christ the King
O CHRIST, JESUS, I acknowledge Thee as Universal King.
For Thee all creatures have been made. Do Thou exercise
over me all the rights that Thou
hast.
Renew my Baptismal Vows, I renounce Satan,
with all his works and pomps, and I promise
to live as a
good Catholic: Especially, do I pledge myself, by all
the means in my power, to bring
about the triumph of the
rights of God and of Thy Church.
Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer Thee all
my poor actions to obtain
that all hearts may recognize Thy Sacred Royalty, and that thus the
reign of Thy Peace may be established throughout the entire world.
Amen.
Soldier's Prayer (St. Ignatius)
Teach us, good Lord, to serve Thee as Thou deservest:
To give, and not to count the cost;
To fight, and not to heed the wounds;
To toil, and not to seek for rest;
To labor, and not to ask for any reward, save that of knowing that we do Thy
will.
A Mortification of the Flesh
Lord, thou didst teach us that all flesh is as grass.
Create in me a discerning heart, and invigorate my soul, to rule over the physical
strength which Thou hast granted me.
Make my body an instrument of my spirit, and make my spirit an instrument of
Thy will.
Prayer for Persecuted Christians
Father, in Thy mysterious providence, Thy Church sharest in the sufferings of
Christ, Thy Son.
Give the spirit of patience and love to those who are persecuted for their faith
in Thee,
And grant the Knights of this Militia the faith, courage, and constancy to protect
them.
