The Lord's Poem

Simon asked Jesus, "Teach us to pray..
We'd talk with God, if we knew the way..
We want Him to hear us & us to hear Him..
We want to know Him in spite of our sin..
What can you tell us or teach us today?"
Then Jesus gave these words to say...

Our Father in Heaven, forever the same,
Your ways are holy and so is Your name..
May the kingdom of heaven quickly come,
that all the earth may see Your will done..
Give us this day the bread we all need..
For by Your Spirit we trust You to lead..

Forgive and cleanse us from every sin,
as we too forgive all the sons of men..
Let not our hearts be guided astray,
but deliver our souls from evil today..
For unto You is the glory and power,
forever and always, hour by hour..

Forgive me Lord

Forgive me Lord for sins long past, and those for which I haven't asked. Forgive me when I neglect to pray; instead, desiring my own way...
