Lord's Prayer
Lord, teach us to pray ... (Luke 11:1)
This, then , is how you should pray .... (Matthew 6:9)
Jesus then says how we should pray ....
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever.
Amen.
Each line is rich in meaning and in how it links us to God.
