The image to the left was downloaded from https:\/\/www.lds.org<\/a>, and is copyrighted. I want ahead and used it here because a version of this same image was above the sacrament table at the Cedar City 3rd<\/sup> Ward when I was growing up. I think this image had an impact on me, and specifically my willingness to pray when challenged twice with the question \u201cAre you a Mormon?\u201d in Corvallis, Oregon in 1998. The lds.org<\/a> page lets you download, high-res print, and share this page with others on social media, so I am posting the image until I am told to take it down by the copyright holder. This song is based on the words of \u00a0John 17:1-26<\/a>, and is Jesus\u2019 prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. These words capture the moment exquisitely. \u201cThe hour is come.\u201d \u201cThis is life eternal to know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.\u201d \u201cI have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.\u201d \u201cGlorify thou me \u2026 with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.\u201d \u201cI have given unto them the words which thou gavest me.\u201d \u201cI pray for them.\u201d \u201cKeep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.\u201d \u201cAnd now I come unto thee.\u201d \u201cI have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them.\u201d \u201cNeither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word. That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us.\u201d \u201cThat they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one.\u201d \u201cFor thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world, O righteous Father.\u201d Concepts not understood by many Christians: pre-existence; separate bodies of God and Christ, as shown by Christ praying to Heavenly Father, yet with one purpose and goal; and how to know and become one with God and with Christ.<\/p>\n
