1. Our Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
let praise and honor clothe your name.
Your kingdom come, your will be done;
throughout the world comlete your reign.
Teach us, O Lord, to trust in you
for bread and breathe each day anew.

2. Forgive us, Lord, our sins and debts
as we to debtors show your grace.
Remove us from all tempting paths
and guard us from the devil's ways;
for glory strength, and heaven's throne
belong to you and you alone.
