Leader: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
All: You have set your glory above the heavens.
Leader: When we look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
All: The moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
Leader: What is man that you are mindful of him?
All: You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
Leader: You have put all things under his feet.
All: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
Leader: Therefore we praise you in song, in deed, and in prayer.
All: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

The Lord's Prayer (It's Yours)
by Bryan Fowler, Jacob Sooter, and Matt Maher
© Be Essential Songs
Father let your kingdom come
Father let your will be done
On Earth as in Heaven
Right here in my heart
Chorus
Give us this day our daily bread
Forgive us forgive us
As we forgive the ones who sinned
Against us forgive them
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from the evil one
Let your kingdom come
It's yours it's yours
All yours all yours
The kingdom the power
The glory are yours
It's yours it's yours
All yours all yours
Forever and ever
The kingdom is yours

Kingdom Come
by Colin Edge, Joshua Dufrene and David Binion
© Covenant Worship -- CCLI License # 162332 -- CCLI Song # 7025146
Lord we pray your kingdom come
Lord we pray your will be done
Every eye behold the One
Seated high upon the throne
And every tongue confess that you are Lord
When your Kingdom comes
Chorus
Everything changes
Everything changes
When your Kingdom comes
Let your Kingdom come
The earth is shaking
Chains are breaking
As your Kingdom comes
Let your Kingdom come
Lord we pray the lame would leap
Lord we pray the blind would see
Every sickness must be healed
As your glory is revealed
And everyone will know that you are Lord
Let your Kingdom come
Bridge
Mountains have to move
Every chain is loosed
God we declare
Your Kingdom is here
Everyone will see
Fall down at your feet
God we declare
Your Kingdom is here
