Our Father which art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy 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.
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever.
Amen.
We can model our prayers on "The Lord's Prayer".
Our Father which art in heaven.
1. God is personal but holds a high position.
Hallowed be thy name.
2. Speak about God’s character.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.
4. Ask God to give you what you need today.

5. Receive forgiveness and pass it on to others.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
6. Ask for help to choose and protection from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
7. End your prayer believing God will work.
