LORD SPRAYER.

The spirit of the Lord’s Prayer is beau tiful. It breathes— A filial spirit—“ Father.” A catholic spirit—“ Our Father.” A reverential spirit—“ Hallowed be Thy name.” A missionary spirit— ‘ Thy Kingdom come.” An obedient spirit—‘Thy will be done.’ A dependent spirit—“ Give us this day our daily bread.” A penitent spirit—“ Forgive our Ires passes.” A forgiving spirit—“As we forgive them that trespass against us.” A watchful spirit—“ Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” A believing and adoring spirit—“ For Thine is the Kingdom, and the power and the glory forever, Amen.”
