(deliver us) is the amplification of the petition, "Deliver us from evil," in the Lord's Prayer, found in almost all liturgies. For instance, that of the Gallican (which is variable) is on Christmas day — "Libera nos, omnipotens Deus, ab omni malo et custodi nos in omni opere bono, perfecta veritas et vera libertas Deus, qui regnas in ssecula saeculorum." Many liturgies contain supplications for the intercession of saints in the Libera nos.
