A PRAYER by DIGBY MACKWORTH DOLBEN

First Line: FROM FALSEHOOD AND ERROR
Last Line: THY SERVANTS FOR EVER.
Subject(s): PRAYER;

FROM falsehood and error,
From darkness and terror,
From all that is evil,
From the power of the devil,
From the fire and the doom,
From the judgment to come --
Sweet JESU, deliver
Thy servants for ever.
