Kiss of Christ Holy Card

Kiss of Christ Holy Card*

Back of Holy Card Reads:

There he hangs - pale figure
pinned against the wood,
God grant that I could love Him
as I really know I should.

I draw a little closer
to share that love Divine
And almost hear Him whisper,

"AH FOOLISH CHILD OF MINE!
IF I SHOULD NOW EMBRACE YOU,
MY HANDS WOULD STAIN YOU RED.
AND IF I LEANED TO WHISPER,
THORNS WOULD PIERCE YOUR HEAD."

And then I knew in silence
that LOVE demands a price.
Twas then I learned that suffering
is but the kiss of Christ.
