For all Christian Kings and Governors
WE pray unto Thee, O great King of heaven and earth, for all Christian Kings, Princes, Governors, and States. Crown them with justice and peace, and with the love of God, and the love of their people. Let holiness unto the Lord be on their foreheads, invest them with the armour of righteousness, and let the anointing from above make them sacred and venerable, wise and holy; that, being servants of the King of kings, friends of religion, ministers of justice, patrons of the poor, they may at last inherit a portion in the Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Grant this for the sake of Christ Jesus, Who is the King of kings and Lord of lords. Amen.
