568 Prayer for the 8th Commandment

568.

Prayer for the 8th Commandment



Oh Father God, You have commanded us not to bear false witness

This I must, this I observe with carefulness



For You hate those who make lies

It is not healthful like a vice



Oh Jesus Christ, help me not to be a liar

Lying and false accusations can ignite war



To the Lord I confess everything that is true

From the Lord comes the truth for me & you



Oh Holy Spirit, help me not lie & falsely accuse

This is God's command, this must be put to use.



Amen.
