Lyics

Our Father in heaven,

We hallow thy name!

May thy kingdom ho-ly

On earth be the same!

Oh, give to us dai-ly

Our portion of bread;

It is from thy bounty 

That all must be fed,

It is from thy boun-ty 

That all must be fed.



Forgive our transgressions,

And teach us to know

That humble compassion

That pardons each foe;

Keep us from temptation,

From weakness and sin,

And thine be the glo-ry 

For-ev-er-A-men,

And thine be the glo-ry 

Forev-er-A-men.
