"Lord, teach us to pray.... And He said unto them, When ye pray, say Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil" (Luke 11:1-4).
There's more to prayer than what we say;
It's how we say it too.
We must be sure that when we pray,
The words we speak are true.
All who pray "Our Father" should
Be certain of salvation.
We do not earn by being good
This wonderful relation.
God in heaven is obeyed;
So should it be on earth.
The Gospel truth is thus displayed
By those who know its worth.
Day by day He meets our need
Before the day begins:
From daily bread on which we feed,
To cleansing from our sins.
Keep these principles in mind
That Jesus taught His own.
All who do shall surely find
Rich mercies at His throne.
