Let your continual mercy, O Lord, cleanse and defend your Church; and, because it cannot continue in safety without your help, protect and govern it always by your goodness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Amen!
Grace and Peace to you in Jesus our Lord.
Yea, I love the words about "safety without your help". That really is it. We need the very presence of GOD to protect, guide and strengthen.
A beautiful prayer. May it be so.
