Pray the Our Father
Praying the Our Father
I say one word of the Our Father aloud or in the silence of my heart. I let it echo in my mind, delighting in it so long as meanings, comparisons, and consolations are found. No matter how long it takes I remain with that one word without hurrying on. When I am ready I move on to the next word and once again let it echo in my mind.
When I have finished my time of prayer, I briefly pray the remainder of the Our Father.

Lord, You have made us for Yourself, And our hearts are restless till they rest in You. (St. Augustine)
THE LORD’S PRAYER
OUR FATHER
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.
Amen

The Lord's Prayer in Scottish Gaelic
Ar n-Athair, a tha air neamh,
gum bu naomh a bhios t’ainm ;
gun tigeadh do rioghachd,
gun deanar do thoil air talamh
mar a thathas ga deanamh air neamh.
Thoir dhuinn an diugh ar n-aran lathail
math dhuinn ar fiachan,
mar a mhathas sinne do luchd ar fiach.
Agus na leig ann am buaireadh sinn.
Ach saor sinn bhon olc . Amen.
Notre Père
Notre Père, qui es aux cieux,
Que ton nom soit sanctifié,
Que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offences
Comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation,
mais délivre-nous du mal,
car c'est à toi qu'appartiennent le règne,
la puissance et la gloire, aux siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Abune dbashmayo (Our Father in aramaic).wav
PEACE
The peace of God, the peace of men,
The peace of Columba kindly.
The peace of Mary mild, the loving,
The peace of Christ, King of tenderness,
The peace of Christ, King of tenderness.
Be upon each window, upon each door.
Upon each hole that lets in light.
Upon the four corners of my house,
Upon the four corners of my bed.
Upon each thing my eye takes in,
Upon each thing my mouth takes in.
Upon my body that is of earth
And upon my soul that came from on high.
