(Alleluia.)
1
Give praise to the Lord in heaven; praise him, all that dwells on high.
2
Praise him, all you angels of his, praise him, all his armies.
3
Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, every star that shines.
4
Praise him, you highest heavens, you waters beyond the heavens.
5
Let all these praise the Lord; it was his command that created them.
6
He has set them there unageing for ever, given them a law which cannot be altered.
7
Give praise to the Lord on earth, monsters of the sea and all its depths;
8
fire and hail, snow and mist, and the storm-wind that executes his decree;
9
all you mountains and hills, all you fruit trees and cedars;
10
all you wild beasts and cattle, creeping things and birds that fly in air;
11
all you kings and peoples of the world, all you that are princes and judges on earth;
12
young men and maids, old men and boys together; let them all give praise to the Lord’s name.
13
His name is exalted as no other,
14
his praise reaches beyond heaven and earth; and now he has given fresh strength to his people. Shall not his faithful servants praise him, the sons of Israel, the people that draw near to him? Alleluia.

We believe in a good argument. That means NO ad hominem attacks. This also includes Pope Francis. Further, referring to him by any other name, may or may not indicate a schismatic attitude, and given the confusion in the Church your comment will NOT be published. Comments are those of the commentators and not those of this blog. You may use a pseudonym... we do... Behave like a guest in our living room and you will be fine.
