The Lord's Prayer

St Francis of Assisi

No ritualistic gestures or long words. A simple prayer -

Dad, you are wonderful and I hope everything goes your way. Help me to care for others, even those I don't like. And look after me. Thanks

And as that's the Father God I believe in, here is my prayer

Lord, I am nothing, if I am not Yours

Yours to love with a father’s pride,

Yours to love with a mother’s care.

And here I am, an adoring child

Reckless in the security of that love.

Confident that whenever I fall

I can lift my arms to you.

Whenever I fail,

Your smile will give me strength.

Whenever I am lost

You will take my hand

And lead me home.

For I am Yours.
