The Catechism: The Address
Our Father in heaven.

What does this mean?

With these words God tenderly invites us to believe that he is our true
Father and that we are his true children, so that we may pray to him as
boldly and confidently as dear children ask their dear father.

Hymn of the Week: It Is Well With My Soul (CW 850)
When peace like a river attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll—
Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul, it is well, it is well with my soul.

The Lord’s Prayer
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 and the power and the glory forever and
ever. Amen.

Luther’s Morning Prayer
I thank you, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, your dear Son,
that you have kept me this night from all harm and danger. Keep me this
day also from sin and every evil, that all my doings and life may please
you. Into your hands I commend my body and soul and all things. Let
your holy angel be with me, that the wicked foe may have no power over
me. Amen.

Or

Luther’s Evening Prayer

I thank you, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, your dear Son,
that you have graciously kept me this day. Forgive me all my sins, and
graciously keep me this night. Into your hands I commend my body and
soul and all things. Let your holy angel be with me, that the wicked foe
may have no power over me. Amen.


Then, if it is morning, go joyfully to your work, according to your
vocation in life, in faith toward God and love toward your neighbor; or, if
it is the close of day, go to sleep at once and in good cheer.
