Give us, O Master,
peace and concord even as you did to our forefathers
when they called devoutly upon you in faith and truth
and make us obedient to your own almighty and all holy name
and to all who have hte rule and governance over us upon earth.
For it is you, Lord
who in your supreme and ineffable might
has given them their sovereign authority
to the intent that we, acknowledging the glory and honour
you have bestowed upon them,
should show them all submission
Grant to them health and peace, harmony and security
that they may exercise without offence
the sovereignty which you have given them
-- Clement of Rome
