Catholic Prayers: Prayer for Peace
Pope John Paul II

Lord Jesus Christ, who are called the Prince of Peace, who are yourself our peace and reconciliation, who so often said, “Peace to you,” grant us peace. Make all men and women witnesses of truth, justice, and brotherly love. Banish from their hearts whatever might endanger peace. Enlighten our rulers that they may guarantee and defend the great gift of peace. May all peoples on the earth become as brothers and sisters. May longed-for peace blossom forth and reign always over us all.

Make our family witnesses of truth, justice, and brotherly love. Banish from our hearts whatever might endanger peace. Enlighten Bethany and myself that we may guarantee and defend the great gift of peace. May our entire family become as brothers and sisters in peaceful cooperation. May longed-for peace blossom forth and reign always over us all.

A Prayer for Hope and Comfort

Watch, dear Lord, with those who wake or watch or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend your sick ones, O Lord Jesus Christ, rest your weary ones, bless your dying ones, soothe your suffering ones, shield your joyous ones, and all for your love’s sake. Amen.

— St. Augustine
