The Our Father

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name; your kingdom come, your 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. Amen.
