The Lord's Prayer.
O father of mercies! our father in heav'n!To whom as their fountain all glory be giv'n:
Thy kingdom bring near and it's pow'r make known,
That thy will upon earth, as above, may be done.
Our bodies sustain with the nurture we need,
Our daily support, and the life-giving bread:
Forgive us our sins, as we now wou'd forgive
The worst of our foes, and their wants wou'd relieve;
But O! above all for the sake of thy love,
Our souls from the snare of the fowler remove;
For thine is the kingdom, the glory and pow'r,
For ever and ever, Amen! Evermore!
