Congregational Response

(To the tune of Edelweise)

May the Lord, mighty Lord,
Bless and keep you forever,
Grant you peace, perfect peace,
Courage in every endeavor,
Lift your eyes and see His face,
And His grace forever,
May the Lord, mighty Lord,
Bless and keep you forever.

Apostle’s Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty,Maker of heaven and earth,

And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and in life everlasting.

Amen

Gloria Patri

Glory be to the Father,

And to the Son,
And to the Holy Ghost,

As it was in the beginning,
Is now and ever shall be,
World without end,

Amen, Amen

Doxology

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him all creatures here below,
Praise Him above ye Heavenly hosts,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Amen

The Lord's Prayer

(Model 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 debts, as we forgive our debtors;
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil,
For Thine is the Kingdom,
And the power,
And the glory.
Forever.

Amen
