The Prayer Lyrics by Joe Bataan

Mr. New York and The East Side Kids

1971

In the name of the Father, and of the Son
And of the Holy Ghost
Amen

Right about this time, I'd like to say a prayer for everyone out there
Being that we live in such a troubled world, it's a wonder that any of us get the chance to pray
So I'd like to dedicate this prayer, to all the sinners all over the world
And that means everybody, and it goes something like this
Oh, oh

Our Father, who art in Heaven
Hallowed be, hallowеd be thy name
Thy kingdom come, thy will bе done, on earth as it is in Heaven
Oh, oh

Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespassed 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
Oh, oh

In the name of the Father, and of the Son
And of the Holy Ghost
Amen
