O God, the Protector of All Who Trust in You

O God,

the protector of all who trust in you,
without whom nothing is strong,
nothing is holy:

Increase and multiply upon us your mercy;

that, with you as our ruler and guide,
we may so pass through things temporal,
that we lose not the things eternal;

through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God,
for ever and ever.
Amen.
