The Lord’s Prayer

Glorious words to raise

Heartfelt supplication

Adorned with praise

 

The Lord’s Prayer

Jesus spoke on the Mount

Wondrous words

Yea, a Life-giving fount

 

The Lord’s Prayer

Model it may I

Giving all to my God

My Father on High

 

Jehovah, my Father

Hallowed is Your Name

Holy, Perfect You are

In Flesh Your Son came

 

Jesus humbled Himself

Lord, You left Your Throne

To die for Your children

Yes, to bleed for Your own

 

My heart aches to know

Your pain on Calvary

My Beloved, my Lord

You shed Your blood for me

 

My love for You, Lord

I shall never contain

Your joy is my joy

Your pain is my pain

 

All wishes and desires

Jesus, I surrender fully to You

Your words are my food

My work: Your Kingdom True

 

May Your Kingdom come

Yes, may earth see Your Will

With Your Holy Spirit

Lord, do my heart ever fill

 

Daily bread, my Beloved

You richly provide

You satisfy every need

As I walk by Your side

 

For my multitude of sins

Lord, please do forigve

Pierced for my iniquity:

Through Your death I live

 

Pierced is my own heart

Looking upon Your thorned brow

I live as a sacrifice for You

This, Lord Jesus, I do vow

 

And fully I forgive those

Who may hurt or offend

Limitless as Your mercy

To all I shall extend

 

How can I offer less

When You, Lord, died for me?

How can I not give

Mercy complete and free?

 

Away from all temptation

Lead me, Lord, I pray

Deliver me from evil

Each moment of each day

 

The Kingdom, Power and Glory

Are Yours forevermore

I rejoice in You, my King

Yes, You I cherish and adore

 

The Prayer of my Lord Jesus

Embody it forever may I

Giving all to You, my God

To You, my Father on High

 

The Prayer of my Lord Jesus

Lifted high on the Mount

Oh, wondrous words

Yea, a Life-giving fount

 

The Prayer of my Lord

Glorious words I raise

I rejoice in You, my God

I sing forever Your praise
