Let us pray to God the Father, who sent his Son to bring us endless peace:
Lord, your kingdom come.
Father most holy, look kindly on your Church,
— come and visit this vine which your own right hand has planted.
Lord, your kingdom come.
Be mindful, Lord, of all the sons of Abraham,
— fulfill the promises you made to their fathers.
Lord, your kingdom come.
Merciful God, look kindly upon men and women of every race,
— may they honor you for your goodness.
Lord, your kingdom come.
Eternal Shepherd, visit the sheep of your flock,
— and gather them together into one fold.
Lord, your kingdom come.
Remember those who have gone forth from this world in your peace,
— lead them into glory with your Son.
Lord, your kingdom come.
