The Lord's Prayer
         
        John 17

                  1    These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven,
                       and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that
                       thy Son also may glorify thee:
                  2    As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should
                       give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
                  3    And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only
                       true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
                  4    I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work
                       which thou gavest me to do.
                  5    And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with
                       the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
                  6    I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavestme
                       out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me;
                       and they have kept thy word.
                  7    Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast
                       given me are of thee.
                  8    For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me;
                       and they have received them, and have known surely that I
                       came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst
                       send me.
                  9    I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them
                       which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
                  10   And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am
                       glorified in them.
                  11   And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the
                       world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine
                       own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be
                       one, as we are.
                  12   While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name:
                       those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is
                       lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be
                       fulfilled.
                  13   And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the
                       world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
                  14   I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them,
                       because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the
                       world.
                  15   I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world,
                       but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
                  16   They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
                  17   Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
                  18   As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also
                       sent them into the world.
                  19   And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might
                       be sanctified through the truth.
                  20   Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which
                       shall believe on me through their word;
                  21   That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I
                       in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may
                       believe that thou hast sent me.
                  22   And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that
                       they may be one, even as we are one:
                  23   I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in
                       one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and
                       hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
                  24   Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be
                       with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which
                       thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the
                       foundation of the world.
                  25   O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I
                       have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent
                       me.
                  26   And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it:
                       that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them,
                       and I in them.
