Lyics

OUR heavenly Father, hear,

The prayer we offer now;

Thy name be hallowed far and near,

To thee all nations bow.



Thy kingdom come--thy will

On earth be done in love,

As saints and seraphim fulfil

Thy perfect law above.



Our daily bread supply,

While by thy word we live;

The guilt of our iniquity

Forgive--as we forgive.



From dark temptation's power,

From satan's wiles defend;

Deliver in the evil hour,

And guide us to the end.



Thine shall forever be

Glory and power divine;

The sceptre, throne, and majesty

Of heaven and earth are thine.



Thus humbly taught to pray

By thy beloved Son,

Through him we come to thee, and say,

'All for his sake be done!'
