Lyrics

Our Fa­ther, God, who art in Heav’n,
All hal­lowed be Thy name;
Thy king­dom come, Thy will be done,
In Heav’n and earth the same.

Refrain

O my Sav­ior, come, my Sav­ior,
O come and bless Thy childr­en now,
While at Thy feet we hum­bly bow,
O come and bless us now.

Give us this day our dai­ly bread,
And as we those for­give,
Who sin against us, so may we
Forgiving grace re­ceive.

Refrain

Into temp­ta­tion lead us not,
From ev­il set us free;
And Thine the king­dom, Thine the pow’r,
And glo­ry ev­er be.
