Lyics

Our Father in heaven,

We hallow thy name!

May thy kingdom holy

On earth be the same!

O give to us daily,

Our portion of bread,

It is from thy bounty 

That all must be fed.



Forgive our transgressions,

And teach us to know

That humble conpassion 

That pardons each foe;

Keep us from temptation,

From weakness and sin,

And thine be the glory 

Forever - Amen!
