You, Master, gave them the authority of kingship through your majestic and indescribable power, so that, recognizing the glory and honor you have given them, we may submit to them and in no way oppose your will. Grant them, Lord, health, peace, harmony, and stability, so that they may administer without hindrance the rule you have given them.
For you, heavenly Master, King of the ages, give the children of humanity glory, honor, and authority over the things that are upon the earth. You, Lord, direct their counsel according to what is good and pleasing before you, so that, administering reverently in peace and gentleness the authority you have given them, they may obtain your mercy.
You alone are able to do these things and even more good things for us. We praise you through Jesus Christ, the high priest and protector of our souls, through whom glory and majesty belong to you, now and throughout every generation and forever and ever. Amen.
