"Deliver" in this case means "set free" or "rescue" from something, and when combined with the word "unto", it has a very Biblical feel to it, à la Matthew 6:13: "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen."
So the whole phrase means "Rescue us [from something], into the care of each other".
