Let us praise Christ, the shepherd and guardian of our souls, who loves and protects his people. Placing our hope in him, we cry out:
Protect your people, Lord.
Eternal shepherd, protect our bishop,
— and all the shepherds of your Church.
Protect your people, Lord.
Look kindly on those who suffer persecution,
— hasten to free them from all adversity.
Protect your people, Lord.
Have mercy on the needy, Lord,
— provide food for the hungry.
Protect your people, Lord.
Enlighten all legislators,
— to enact laws in the spirit of wisdom and justice.
Protect your people, Lord.
Come to the aid of our departed brothers and sisters, whom you have redeemed with your blood,
— make them worthy to enter your wedding feast.
Protect your people, Lord.
