1 Save your people, Lord, and bless your inheritance;
Govern and uphold them, now and forever.

2 Give peace to your Church and to the whole world;
Make us your instruments of justice and truth.

3 Grant us forgiveness of our sins and offenses;
Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy.

4 Strengthen our communion with all your saints;
Bind us together by your Holy Spirit.

5 Heal the sick and comfort the lonely;
Relieve the sufferings of all your people.

6 Remember all who have died in your mercy;
Welcome them into the light of your kingdom.

7 In you, Lord, is our hope;
And we shall never hope in vain.
