Our father
Which art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come

Thy will be done on earth
As it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom





And the power
And the glory, forever, amen
