Prayer for the Celebration of the Mass in Latin

O Sovereign of the world, Who have willed that Thou be praised in every language of men and of angels; grant, we beseech Thee, that now too, in our days, the unblemished sacrifice of Thy beloved Son, may be incessantly offered to Thee in the language of the Romans, in many churches of our land and of every land, by a people turned to Thee with all their heart. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
