Author: J. E. Seddon (1915-1983) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #358 (1987) Meter: 8.8.8.5 Lyrics: 1 Father God in heaven, Lord most high;
hear your children's prayer, Lord most high:
hallowed be your name, Lord most high —
O Lord, hear our prayer.
2 May your kingdom come here on earth;
may your will be done here on earth,
as it is in heaven so on earth —
O Lord, hear our prayer.
3 Give us daily bread day by day,
and forgive our sins day by day,
as we too forgive day by day —
O Lord, hear our prayer.
4 Lead us in your way,
make temptations come make us strong;
save us all from sin, keep us strong —
O Lord, hear our prayer.
5 All things come from you, all are yours —
kingdom, glory, power, all are yours;
take our lives and gifts, all are yours —
O Lord, hear our prayer. Topics: God's Church Penitence and Prayer; The Lord's Prayer; Christ the Friend of Sinners; Pentecost 14 The Family; Pentecost 18 The Offering of Life Scripture: Matthew 6:9-13 Languages: English Tune Title: KUM BA YAH
