PRAYER

Opening Prayer

When I go outside, I stop and stare

Your wondrous creation is everywhere.

In each blade of grass, each creature, plant, and flower

The miracle of life shows Your almighty power

Amen


From "My First Prayers" by Autumn Publishing

CLOSING PRAYER

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed by 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

And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory

Forever and ever

Amen
