The Laudes Regiæ (English: Royal Praises or Royal Acclamations) is a hymn used in the rites of the Catholic Church. There are variant texts, but they most often begin with these words that give the hymn its alternative title: Christus vincit! Christus regnat! Christus imperat! (English: Christ conquers, Christ reigns, Christ commands).

Later on, this would move into England, Rome, and the rest of Europe, and it became of popular use also at the entrance of Bishops, and of course the Pope. In the several scores existing, one will find the acclamation for the Bishop, or the simple Christus Vincit, with verses from the psalm 117.

Christ reigns! Christ commands! Christ conquers! Christ reigns! Christ commands! Hear, O Christ Hear, O Christ For the Church of God, everlasting safety! Redeemer of the world, come to her aid Holy Mary, come to her aid Holy Mother of the Church, come to her aid Queen of Apostles, come to her aid Saint Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, come to her aid Saint John the Baptist, come to her aid Saint Joseph, come to her aid Christ conquers! Christ reigns! Christ commands! The earliest notated sources of the melody (or versions of it) can be found in tenth-century manuscripts, including some of the earliest sources of Western liturgical chant. (The earliest surviving source of any Western chant is thought to be the Graduale of Laon, which dates from the 930s.) As with most of the chant repertory, it can be safely assumed that the melody had been known and transmitted for many centuries before the invention of musical notation enabled transcription. But the musical characteristics of the earliest notated version make it difficult to place: stylistically, it does not fit easily within Roman chant (although there are some similarities with the lection tones), so it may be the result of a Frankish adaption of a chant or tone from another tradition—either Gallican, Visigoth, or even Byzantine. To him alone be authority, praise and rejoicing, through endless ages of ages. Amen Christ conquers! Christ reigns! Christ commands!

Christ reigns! Christ commands! In Part 1, I examined how the texts of the Proper of the Mass on the newly instituted feast of Christ the King were incorporated into the Gregorian repertory. In the second part, I would like to explore how this comparatively modern feast has provided a new context for an ancient chant: the Laudes Regiae (‘Royal Praises’). While readers may have encountered these well-known acclamations in processions, pilgrimages, and other devotions throughout the liturgical year, the words of the refrain— Christus vincit! Christus regnat! Christus imperat! (“Christ conquers! Christ reigns! Christ commands!”)—make it especially appropriate for the feast of Christ the King.

On Easter Sunday, as the king processed into the Cathedral, the laudes regiae were sung for both Him and Christ or rather, to Christ, in him. Since then, these words were instituted as the chant used in the coronation of the Holy Roman Emperors, and later on in France, during the anointing and coronation of the Kings.
