THE LORDS PRAYER

Our Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done,
On earth as in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our trespasses.
As we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil;

RESPONSE:
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours,
For ever and ever. AMEN.

COMMUNION HYMN:

HAIL QUEEN OF HEAVEN

Hail, Queen of heav,n, the ocean star,
Guide of the wand’rer here below;
Thrown on life’s surge, we claim thy care
Save us from peril and from woe.
Mother of Christ, star of the sea,
Pray for the wanderer, pray for me.

And while to God who reigns above
In Godhead one, in Persons Three,
The source of life, of grace, of love,
Homage we pay on bended knee;
do thou, bright Queen, star of the sea,
Pray for thy children, pray for me.
