Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
–U.S. Book of Common Prayer, “Of the Reign of Christ,” (1979), p. 254
“My kingdom is not of this world.”
–John 18:36 (New International Version)
