To "adore" a human king would have been to call him a God, like the Herodians who insisted that King Herod was the Messiah and the Second YHWH. Wade was at Douay. He was a Jacobite, not a heretic. So yeah, it's an interesting theory, but Bennett Zon should have realized it was full of nonsense. Blackbirds are one thing; stealing God's place from the Baby is quite another.
Long live the House of Stuart.
You might enjoy our Killed by a Sixpence video which is a Jacobite story. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for your comment, it is a very interesting and tragic period of history.

Thanks
Wade is only 1 person linked to the lyrics of this hymn. There are much earlier and non Jacobite attributions, including to monasteries and kings.
Yes as is so often the case in history there are different accounts and versions of the same thing or event. Thank you for watching.
