The Prayer of The Order

 O Lord Jesus Christ, for your five wounds that we carry on our insignia, we pray to You.
Give us the strength to love all whom your Father has created and, more so, our enemies.
Free our soul and heart from sin, from partiality, from egoism and from cowardice so that we can be worthy of Your sacrifice.
Let your Spirit fall upon us all, the Knights and Dames of the Holy Sepulchre, so that it may render us as convinced and sincere ambassadors of peace and love among our brothers and sisters and, especially, among all those who think they do not believe in You.
Give us faith to face all the problems of everyday life and to deserve, one day, to approach, humbly but without fear, Your presence.
Amen.
