FATHER ABOVE TO YOU WE PRAY
Holy is Your almighty name
Give us today all that we need
And may our lives reflect Your grace
Lord let Your kingdom come on earth as in heaven
Yours is the kingdom the power and the glory forever and ever
We lift You higher
Father above forgive us our wrongs
As we forgive those who wrong us
Lead us today in the path that is straight
And from all evil deliver us
Lord let Your will be done
Lord let Your will be done
Lord let Your will be done on earth
Yours is the kingdom the power and the glory forever and ever
We lift you higher
Hallowed be Your name
Marc James & Nick Herbert
