to bring the new light of salvation to the world.
May he enlighten us with his radiance.
Father, may everything we do
begin with your inspiration,
and continue with your saving help.
Let our work always find its origin in you,
and through you reach completion.
Lord, guide us in your gentle mercy,
for left to ourselves we cannot do your will.
God, our Father, your light of truth
guides us to the way of Christ.
May all who follow him
reject what is contrary to the gospel.
God our Savior, bring us back to you
and fill our minds with your wisdom.
Father, you guide your people with kindness
and govern us with love.
Give the Spirit of wisdom
to those you have called to lead your Church.
May the growth of your people in holiness
be the eternal joy of our shepherds.
Father, keep before us the wisdom and love
you have revealed in your Son.
Help us to be like him in word and deed.
Father, without you we can do nothing.
By your Spirit, help us to know what is right
and to be eager in doing your will.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. AMEN.
