"the only hope of heavenly grace"

Ars Pacis Augustae, South Frieze (Family of Augustus)

Keep your family safe, O Lord, with unfailing care,
that, relying solely on the hope of heavenly grace,
they may be defended always by your protection.
Through.

Familiam tuam, quaesumus, Domine,
continua pietate custodi,
ut, quae in sola spe gratiae caelestis innititur,
tua semper protectione muniatur.
Per.

with unfailing tenderness protect,
that it (which on the only hope of heavenly grace relies)
by your protection may always be fortified.
