"O Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, crucified for us and resurrected, who prayed on earth for us and prays even now to the eternal Father, saying, 'Father, sanctify them in thy truth; cause them all to be one, as thou and I art one in love.' O Christ, we beseech thee to assist us always with this prayer. Gather together and forever keep us in thy church. According to thy loving-kindness shield us. Amen." —Philip Melanchthon,(1553) |
