John 17:1-5

1 Jesus said these things. Then, raising his eyes in prayer, he said: Father, it's time. Display the bright splendor of your Son So the Son in turn may show your bright splendor.

2 You put him in charge of everything human So he might give real and eternal life to all in his charge.

3 And this is the real and eternal life: That they know you, The one and only true God, And Jesus Christ, whom you sent.

4 I glorified you on earth By completing down to the last detail What you assigned me to do.

5 And now, Father, glorify me with your very own splendor, The very splendor I had in your presence Before there was a world.
