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.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power,
and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit:
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Great and marvellous are your deeds,
O Lord God, sovereign over all;
Just and true are your ways,
O King of the ages.
Who shall not fear you, Lord,
and do homage to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations shall come and worship
before you, for your just decrees
stand revealed.
Revelation 15.3-4
We praise thee, O God:
we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee: the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud: the Heavens,
and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubin, and Seraphin: continually do cry.
Holy, Holy, Holy: Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of thy glory.
From the Te Deum, Book of Common Prayer (1662)
O come, let us worship God our king,
O come, let us worship and fall down before Christ,
our king and our God.
O come, let us worship and fall down
before the very Christ, our king and our God.
O come, let us worship and fall down before him.
Liturgy of St John Chrysostom (4th century)
O Father, give the spirit power to climb
to the fountain of all light, and be purified.
Break through the mists of earth,
the weight of the clod.
Shine forth in splendour, thou that art calm weather
and quiet resting place for faithful souls.
