Prayer for the Pope
Prayer for the Pope: Prayer for the Sovereign Pontiff
O God, the Pastor, and Governor of all the faithful,
mercifully regard Thy servant, Pope _____________ ,
whom Thou hast placed as chief pastor over Thy Church;
grant, we beseech Thee,
that both by word and example
he may edify all those who are under his charge;
that, together with the flock committed to his care,
he may arrive at life everlasting:
through our Lord, Jesus Christ, Your Son,
who lives and reigns with You
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
One God,
forever and ever.
Amen.
