* OUR humble prayer, in Jesus’ name, In faith, on bended knee;

* FATHER of mercies, God of truth And love, we bring to thee.

* WHICH of thy creatures, Lord, do not Thy gracious goodness share?

* ART Thou not mindful of all thy works, Thy presence everywhere?

* IN HEAVEN above, on earth beneath, Thy Majesty shines forth;

* HALLOWED BE thy holy name, East, West, South and North.

* THY NAME is great, thy word stands fast Eternal as thy days

* THY rule extend o’er all the earth, Send Jesus back again,

* KINGDOM and empire shall submit, And he the right maintain.

* COME quickly then, thy kingdom come, Eden again restore;

* THY word send forth from Zion’s height, Let sinners be no more

* WILL not the waiting sons of men Obey thy high command?

* BE loyal to the King of Kings, Supreme in all the land?

* DONE as by angel hosts above Thy glorious will shall be

* ON all the earth Thy glory spread As waters o’er the sea.

* EARTH cursed and marred through sin and death, Shall yet again be blest.

* AS truly as I live, thou say’st, There yet remains a rest.

* IT IS IN Thine own power, O Lord, The mighty work to do;

* HEAVEN condescends to make it known, And ratifies it too.

* GIVE US to understand thy word, And daily may we feed;

* THIS would we ask, all-gracious Lord, Supply our every need.

* DAY after day in prayer we seek The help thy grace imparts.

* OUR way commit to thee, O Lord, Who only knows our hearts;

* DAILY do thou that prayer regard, Our every way control.

* BREAD give, which lasts for ever more, Quick’ning the inmost soul.

* AND if thou seest aught amiss, In thought, in deed, or word.

* FORGIVE US for thy mercy’s sake, Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

* OUR DEBTS thou never canst forgive, If we should see revenge;

* AS WE FORGIVE this may we learn, Jehovah will avenge.

* OUR DEBTORS would we pray for, Lord, With kindness treat our foes;

* AND seek to know and learn of him, Who ne’er resented woes.

* LEAD US in pastures fresh and green, That we may grow thereby;

* NOT INTO that which leads astray, And causes men to die.

* TEMPTATION may we always shun, And if it comes, endure;

* BUT may we always this hold fast, Deliverance is sure.

* DELIVER US FROM wicked men, Who cast Thy word behind,

* EVIL stands thick through all the land To fascinate the mind.

* FOR all we ask in Jesus’ name, According to Thy will;

* THINE is it, Lord, to grant request, And thine own word fulfill.

* IS not thy truth in every age A shield and buckler, too?

* THE promises which thou hast given Are faithful, firm, and true.

* KINGDOM, crown and might shall fall, While truth shall still remain;

* THE poor shall yet be raised to power, And in they kingdom reign.

* POWER shall be given to those once weak, Who shall awake and sing,

* AND live through him who coped with death, And drew its fatal sting.

* THE saints of every age and clime, Redeemed by his own blood,

* GLORY and might ascribe to him Who brings us unto God.

* FOR EVER shall the song be sung, Of Moses and the Lamb;

* AMEN. And angels and men shall bow, And shout aloud, Amen!!
