Pray once:
May the Father command it, may the Son arrange it, and may the Holy Spirit appease the hearts of those who are against us.
Repeat 10 times:
Come, Holy Spirit, enlighten the hearts of those who can favor us. (or those who can help us)
Pray once:
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen.
Then all of this is repeated four more times.
(We usually use a rosary to say this prayer, using the beads to keep count.)
This prayer is a call to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit to intervene in our lives and to help us to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of peace.
The first line of the prayer, “May the Father command it,” is a request for the Father’s authority to be used to bring about peace. The Father is the creator of all things, and He has the power to command the forces of nature and the hearts of men. We ask Him to use His power to bring about peace in our world.
The second line of the prayer, “may the Son arrange it,” is a request for the Son’s wisdom and guidance to be used to bring about peace. The Son is the Word of God, and He is the one who came to earth to show us the way to peace. We ask Him to use His wisdom and guidance to help us to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of peace.
The third line of the prayer, “may the Holy Spirit appease the hearts of those who are against us,” is a request for the Holy Spirit’s love and compassion to be used to bring about peace. The Holy Spirit is the one who brings peace to our hearts, and He is the one who can help us to forgive those who have wronged us. We ask Him to use His love and compassion to help us to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of peace.
The prayer is repeated ten times, which is a symbol of the importance of peace. Peace is not something that we can achieve overnight. It is something that we must work for every day. By praying this prayer, we are asking the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit to help us to work for peace in our world.
