...delivering us from law? Matthew 6:12
forgive us our debt

Matthew 6:13
deliver us from evil

Romans 7:6
we are delivered from the law

Galatians 5:3,4 (notably written to bewitched churches)
For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Ephesians 4:32
God hath forgiven you, for Christ's sake
(Christ is the end of the law: Romans 10:4)

Seems God hath forgiven you is by abolition of law,
if Christ abolished law(enmity) to be our peace: Eph 2,
and nailed law to the cross for being against us: Col 2.

Seems if you try to keep any law
you become a DEBTOR to the whole law,
and payment for any breach is a death sting,
surely die, because of "the curse of the law".
Law is both the source of sin: Romans 5:13 and
strength of sin's death sting: 1Corinthians 15:56.
 
No offense, but your question makes me wonder if you really understand either law or grace.

It is forgive us our debts (i.e. sins) as we forgive our debtors (i.e. those who sin against us).
To see how this works we see in (Matthew.6:14,15), the two verses following the Lord´s prayer, that He will forgive us our sins if we forgive other´s their sins: which is exactly agreeable with the law of equity (i.e. fairness).
To deliver us from evil the prayer that He will not lead us into temptation, which God will not do as we see in (James.1:13); but if end up following sin, then we are to blame, as we see in (James.1:14,15).
