Hallowed be Thy Name

Hallowed be the name
of our father, God
we hallow, praise, call him blessed
in response, natural, read
God’s love, for us
We respond, in love
not a fearful love, not by command,
not by his awesome power
Our children, they listen
listen oh so well,
mirrors on our lives
Just so, we hallow his name
and hope to mirror his ways
