Worst case they could consider you a no show, cancel your booking and force you to buy a new ticket.
They could consider it a change and charge the applicable change fee for your fare class. Plus any fare difference if your fare bucket is sold out.
They could be nice and take your delayed flight arrival into consideration (I assume that maybe your concern) and rebook you on the next flight for free.

How they will behave in this situation will depend on the following criteria :
So to summarize, worse case, you'll have to buy a new ticket and best case, you'll make your connection without any issue. Intermediate situations : Lufthansa will reschedule you on another flight for a fee or for free.
I'd suggest you to let them know in advance. This could help...

Lufthansa tickets in the cheapest fare category cannot be changed, so if you miss your flight, your ticket (also any further flights on the same ticket, if applicable) will be cancelled and you have to buy a new ticket.
You can of course hope, as the other answers are trying to suggest, that a fortune fairy will show up and fix everything for you, but having had some experience with Lufthansa's flexibility and goodwill (or lack thereof), I would not expect anything beyond what your ticket is actually good for.
