Lord’s Prayer # 3 on the Lord’s Prayer CardOur Father, who art in heaven,Hallowed be Thy name.Thy Kin-dom 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 Kin-dom,And the power,And the glory forever.Amen.
Confession and PardonLord God, we confess the careless ways we live. Thoughtless words which cut down and destroy the dignity of your children. Our quickness to anger and our preference for holding grudges. Our willingness to hear the cries of the oppressed and yet still return to our implicit biases, micro-aggressions, and positions of power and privilege. Forgive us. Free us. Equip us so that together we not only hear your message of justice and grace, but embody it for all to whom you send us. It is in the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
One Voice: ...in the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven!Many Voices: In the name of Jesus Christ, you are forgiven. Glory to God! Amen.
PARDONOne Voice: Christ died for us while we were yet sinners. That proves God’s love for us. In the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven.Many Voices: In the name of Jesus Christ you are forgiven. Glory to God! Amen
