Our Father – Lyrics

Our Father
Who loves us like a mother loves her newborn child
Our father in heaven

Your Kingdom
So unlike this petty world of would-be leaders and power-struggles
Your Kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth and in heaven
And by me

Holy and Precious be your name

Feed us today our daily bread
But only if we are hungry 
And teach us what we should hunger for
Forgive us today our daily sins
In the same way we forgive others
And teach us to forgive                       
Even ourselves

Holy and Precious
Holy and Precious
Holy and Precious be your name

Lead us but not into temptation
For we spend too much time there of our own free will
And rescue us from the evils that we flirt with
Let us stop grabbing power and begin to use yours
Let us stop seeking glory and start giving you what’s yours
Let us stop building our kingdoms and join you in building yours 

Forever and forever
Will we ever catch a glimpse of just how long that is
Forever and forever                    
And right now
