O God, you are faithful and true,
you “have mercy on thousands and ten thousands of those who love you,”
you love the humble and protect the needy who lack all things,
for all things are subject to you.

Look down on this your people, who bow their heads to you, and bless them with spiritual blessing. “Keep them as the apple of your eye,” preserve them in piety and righteousness, and
give them eternal life in Christ Jesus your beloved Son, with him be glory, honor, and worship to you and to the Holy Spirit, now and always, and forever and ever. Amen.
