The Great Intercessory Prayer: “Those Whom Thou Hast Given Me”
1. These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said,
A1 — Give Eternal Life
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.
B — That They Might Know Thee
3. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
A2 — Glory, Before the World Was — I have Manifested Thy Name (Thine They Were)
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 gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
C — Given unto Them the Words
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,
D — Thou didst Send Me
and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
E — I Come to Thee (I Am No More In The World)
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.
F1 — Keep through Thine Own Name — They May Be One, As We Are — I Kept Them In Thy Name
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.
E’ — Now Come I To Thee (I Speak In The World)
13. And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
C’ — Given Them Thy Word (Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth)
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.
D’ — Thou Has Sent Me (Sanctified Through The 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.
A1′ — May Be One, One In Us, Even As We Are One, Perfect In One (Love) — Glory, Before The Foundation of The World
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.
B’ — I Have Known Thee
25. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
A3′ — I Have Declared Thy Name (Love In Them, I In Them)
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.
