Signs of its dawning
Matthew 6:9-13
Pray then in this way:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And do not bring us to the time of trial,
but rescue us from the evil one.
“Your kingdom come.”
Eternal God,
you have set before us the great hope
that your kingdom will come on earth,
and have taught us to pray for its coming.
Make us ready to thank you
for the signs of its dawning,
and to pray and work for the perfect day
when your will shall be done on earth
as it is in heaven;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Book of Common Order)
