Prayer for the New Pope

Father of Providence,
look with love on Benedict XVI, our Pope,
your appointed successor to Saint Peter
on whom you built your Church.
May he be the visible center and foundation
of our unity in faith and love.
Grant 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.
