PRAYER: Lord, Help Us Mere Men To Know Jesus Christ

Father, 

We Come To You In Faith

And Ask That You Have Mercy On Those

Who Hold To The Lie Of

The Good-Man Jesus

And

Plead With You To Draw Them Safely

Into The Knowledge

And

Saving Grace

Of The Lord Jesus Christ

The Creator

Healer 

Sealer

Savior

Almighty God 

Conquering King 

Forever Friend

Provider Of All That Blesses The Life

He Who Shelters 

And 

The Believing Soul Defends!

Help Us, Lord

Not To Seek To Live Our Lives 

On The Quicksand

This Is Convenient Lies!

Help Us, By Faith

To Strive For Heaven

All The While Despising 

The Pharisee Leaven!

Shelter Our Hearts

So That We Will Resist 

Pride And Vanity

And 

Teach Us Daily

To Bless The Creator-Sustainer God

Who Holds Over Us

Heaven's Comfortingly Radiant

Starry Canopy!

Help Us, Mere Men

To Accept That To Know Jesus Christ

Is To Know The Truth!

Help Us To Deny The Liar

And

Permit Wisdom

To Fill Our Nagging 

Need-For-Truth Sweet Tooth!

Let Not Greed For Gain

Be To Our Existence A Bane

And

Let Love For The Light

By Your Holy Spirit

Be Our Currency

Never To Be Exchanged!

May Holy Angels

Guard Our Sleep!

May Holy Angels Attend Us

As We Daily Rest In Jesus

Like Contented Sheep!

May Sweet Water Flow

As In Green Pastures We Grow

Hearing

Heeding Ever The Call Of Him

Whose Blessed Voice

We Intimately Know!

Oh,  Lord

Let Your Kingdom Come In Us

As We Grow In Grace

Until That Glorious Day

And

Grant Us Your Peace

Even As Man's Troubles Increase

Every Which Way!

Help Us To Share The Good News

That Inhabiting The Life Of Jesus Christ

Brings

Everlasting Relief

And

Help Us Not To Embrace

The Lying Belief

That The Machinations Of Man

Can Ever Bring Mankind

Lasting Stress Relief!

Thank You, Lord

For Hearing And Answering

The Prayer Of Faith

Offered In The Name Of 

Jesus Christ The Righteous

The Ever Faithful

Our Holy Commander-In-Chief!

We Love You, Lord!

Keep Us In Your Care

And

Increase Our Faith!

AMEN.
