Our Father in heaven
Hallowed be Your name
Our Father in heaven
Hallowed be Your name
Your holy name
Your ways are not our ways
And Your thoughts high above
With wonders unfailing
And a heart full of love
Your truth shines its wonder
Bringing light to this day
The treasure of heaven
Full of hope, full of grace
And we’re falling on our knees
Just to see Your presence here
(And) we pray, we pray
That Your glory, O God
Db Would be seen on earth
We pray, we pray
In Your mercy, O God
Would You come and dwell here
Lord, we need You
Come and dwell here
Lord, we need You
Come and dwell here
