Holy Sonnets
XIV

by John Donne

And whil' st this universall Quire, 
That Church in triumph, this in warfare here, 
Warm'd with one all-partaking fire 
Of love, that none be lost, which cost thee deare, 
Prayes ceaslesly,'and thou hearken too, 
(Since to be gratious 
Our taske is treble, to pray, beare, and doe) 
Heare this prayer Lord: O Lord deliver us 
From trusting in those prayers, though powr'd out thus.
