Pray Always
Welcome to Grace for All, a daily devotional podcast produced by the people of First United Methodist Church in Maryville, Tennessee.
Today, in keeping with our July theme of Pray Always, we feature a traditional prayer and several prayers written by our youth.
Today's traditional prayer is the Lord's Prayer. The personal prayers were written by Ada, Alliyah, and Viola.
Our reader for today is Stephen.
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom 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. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever. Amen.
