Let us praise Christ who gives power and strength to his people, and let us entreat him with sincere hearts:
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
Christ, our strength, you called your faithful ones to your truth,
— mercifully grant them faith and perseverance.
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
Direct our leaders according to your will,
— and help them to keep us in peace.
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
You provided bread for the hungry crowd,
— teach us to share our resources with the needy.
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
Do not direct world leaders to give attention only to the needs of their own nations,
— but give them, above all, a respect and a deep concern for all peoples.
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
Grant blessed life and resurrection to our brothers who have fallen asleep,
— and may all those who have believed in you share in your glory.
Hear us, O Lord, and we shall praise you for ever.
