the mystery of glory THE HIGHPRIESTLY PRAYER
ОглавлениеO Father, it is my desire
That those You gave to me
Should be with me that where I am
My friends may also be.
To them I have revealed your love,
Your truth, your life, your way;
And now a word abides in them
Which shall not pass away.
The glory that You gave to me,
To them I now have given;
That so they may be one on earth
As we are one in heaven.
Do not, O Father, take them from
The world your hands have made;
But keep them from the Evil one,
From all that is depraved.
And teach them how to give their lives
That new life may abound.
In giving all they find our love
And in that love are found.
O Father, it is my desire
That all may live as one,
With You in me and I in them
So shall your Kingdom come.
