Omnis Gloria ab Intus CHRISTUS REGNAT O King of kings — O, Friend of friends, O Love Itself, to Thee we flee! We beg Thee O Beloved Lord to bring Your sceptre into our hearts, we surrender them to Thee, that You may recreate them into a resting place for Your wounded Heart, that when all the world is immersed in the pursuit of sinful pleasures, we may be near Thee, faithful and consoling. We ask nothing more of Thee, than to be a consolation, to keep the vigil, to watch and pray, for who has suffered more? — who has been more ungratefully repaid? — and who has been more abused and scorned, than You my Lord? O Christ, Our King, Our PATRON, we are Yours! We have chosen Christ, the King, as the Patron and Lord of our hearts. How majestic is His Power; how pure and deep is His love! During His earthly sojourn He was a poor Nazarene; yet throngs gathered about Him daily. He possessed neither riches nor vast tracts of land; yet He was a mighty King and Ruler of millions of souls. Hence, the beauty, splendor, glory, and sweet majesty of our King were not a result of successful acquisition of earthly powers. They were a reflection of the soul within. We have taken an example from our Patron and King and have selected Omnis Gloria ab Intus” (All glory is from within) as our motto. We hope, we trust, and we pray that this motto will ever stand before us like a sentinel guiding our daily thoughts and actions, that daily we may more closely walk in the footsteps of our Lord and Master, Christ the King. The white rose, our class flower, and a symbol of love, we have chosen to remind us of the love we should bear for the King of Love.

Jezus wowczas staje si? wspoluczestnikiem wszystkich ich mysli, pragnien i przedsi?wzi?c. Jemu zwierzaj si? ze swych pociech, trosk i bolesci. Tak i my, pragn c przyczynic si? do rozszerzenia Krolestwa Chrystusowego, obralysmy uroczyscie Jezusa za Wodza i Krola naszej Akademii. Wiel. Ks. J. Luniewski ze zgromadzenia OO.
