Disciple's Prayer Part IV

   And don’t let us yield to temptation,

but rescue us from the evil one.

For yours is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory forever,

Amen.

Save us from what we can't save ourselves from,

The dark rooms,

The privacy,

The being alone, or at least thinking we are.

Rescue us from ourselves,

Our friends,

Our enemies,

and the Enemy.

For you have the upper hand,

The victory already won,

The past, the present,

and Eternity.
