Hey, that’s us!

Christ prayed for His disciples
for those given to Him by God
He prayed they would be one
as He and the Father are one
Christ prayed for His disciples
those who walked with Him
He prayed that God would protect them
until their time was done.

Christ prayed for others
for all who believed through them
the Good News of Salvation
to the end of time
Christ prayed for you and me
for all who believed
the promise He gave them
come, follow, believe.
