By Mrs. Anna Holmes Thou canst not pray the Lord’s Prayer \nd make one selfish plea; Thou canst not pray the Lord’s Prayer And even once say ME. # For it’s OUR. OUR, OUR, And it’s US, US. US; And the fourth time it is OUR, And the fourth time it is US. Thou not pray the Lord’s Prayer And even once say 1; Thou canst riot pray the Lord’s Prayer And even once sa\ MY. Nor canst thou pray the Lord’s Prayer And pray not for another, For when thou asketh DAILY BREAD Thou must include thy brother. And it’s US, US, US; . And it’s OUR. OUR. OUR; As free from selfish motive As the fragrance of a flower. For others are included In each and every plea. For front beginning through the end It does not once say ME. —New York “Temperance Work.” t st Jl
