566 Prayer for the 6th Commandment

566.

Prayer for the 6th Commandment



Oh Father God, You have commanded us not to commit adultery

This I must, this I perform willingly



For You have made us as temples of Your Spirit

We must avoid being like animals or 



Oh Jesus Christ, help me not to become an adulterer

I don't want my spirit to be torn asunder



To our Creator we must be led

From our Creator we must be fed



Oh Holy Spirit, let me not adulterate the body & soul

This is God's command, this is for the good of all.



Amen.
