How to Pray |The Lord's Prayer: A Children's Poem

 


How to Pray

Friends of Jesus

Asked one day,

“Lord, please teach us

How to pray.”

And Jesus said,

“This is the way…

Daddy God,

You’re up so high

Higher than mountains

Or clouds in the sky.

Please come make

The sad things good,

And give us all

Some yummy food.

Help us know

Your love is big,

Bigger than

Any bad

Things we did.

Help us love

Like you do—

Family, friends,

And enemies, too.

Keep us all from

Doing wrong,

And save us from

The evil one.

For You are King,

And You are strong,

And You give life,

Forever-long.

Amen."

From Matthew 6:9-13, KJV

After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 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.
