All Creatures Great and Small – Especially Tubok

When counting my blessings, Tubok comes to mind.  It’s been over a year since I lost him.  My husband likes to think of him waiting by the Rainbow Bridge.  I like to think of him playing with my dad and following my mom, along with a host of other furry friends who brightened our days and have now pasted on.

Here’s Tubok to brighten your day:

Infant King Benign

O Infant King benign
I offer You the face
Of Mother Mary
As she gazed upon You
That very first time
Beholding long
Your holy countenance.

Her eyes, drinking in her Babe,
Her King, her Priest,
Her Son Divine,
Wept tears of joy,
And wonder,
In silent adoration,
Pondering comprehension.
She smiled in inward exultation.

You will never forget
Her look of love
As she gazed upon
Him, Who no earthly eye
Had seen,
A treasure for the world,
In her care,
To be wrapped
In lowly swaddling clothes
You, O Christ Child,
In Your humanity divine.
