Our Father in heaven, all glorious above

Our Father in heaven, all glorious above,
Your name be all-hallowed and honored with love.
Let Your kingdom come and let Your will be done,
Just as in your presence, here under Your sun.

Give us on this day just the bread that we need,
And let not this grace drive our hearts into greed.
Forgive us our sins as we also forgive,
And in this forgiving, Lord, teach us to live.

Do not lead our souls near temptation’s allure;
From evil’s great power Your deliv’rance be sure.
For Yours is the kingdom, the glory and power,
As long as we live, every day, every hour.


TEXT: Charles Spence Freeman, 2012
