Jesus said, "And
after this manner therefore
pray ye: Our father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy
kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we
forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver
us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the
glory,
for ever. Amen." (Matthew 6:9-13).
