Lord, source of eternal life and truth, give to Your shepherd, the
Pope, a spirit of courage and right judgement, a spirit of knowledge
and love.
By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care may he, as
successor to the apostle Peter and vicar of Christ, build Your church
into a sacrament of unity, love, and peace for all the world.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives
and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.
Amen.
