Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into
temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom
and the power and the glory
forever.
Amen.
Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything,
by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
And the peace of God,
which transcends
all understanding,
will guard your hearts
and your minds
in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
