Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us ✠ from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.
Amen.
Teaches us how to pray
Teaches us that we are God’s children
Teaches us what to expect from God our heavenly Father
Teaches us to pray like Jesus (Mt 26:39, 42; Lk 23:46)
Teaches us that because of Jesus God will provide for us, bringing us through death to eternal life
