We've gathered here today
We've gathered here to pray
Hear our cry, Lord we need Your mercy
And we need your grace today
Hear us as we pray
Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name'
Our Father hear us from heaven
Forgive our sins we pray
Hear our song
As it rises to heaven
May your glory fills the air
As the waters cover the sea
See our heart
And remove anything
That is standing in the way
Of coming to You today
Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name'
Our Father hear us from heaven
Forgive our sins we pray
Though we are few
We're surrounded by many
Who have crossed that river before
And this the song we'll be singing for ever
HOLY is the LORD

We've gathered here today
We've gathered here to pray
Hear our cry, Lord we need your mercy
And we need your grace today
Hear us as we pray
Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name'
Our Father hear us from heaven
Forgive our sins we pray
Hallowed be Your name - What does this mean?
A prayer in the Bible commonly known as the Lord's prayer contains the phrase, "Hallowed be Your name," but what does hallowed mean? The American Heritage Dictionary defines hallowed as, "sanctified; consecrated; highly venerated; sacrosanct," like the hallowed halls of a great university. To hallow is "to make or set apart as holy. To respect or honor greatly; revere." In simpler terms, we often use hallowed to refer to someone whom we should treat with awe and respect because they deserve it.
Why does the Lord's prayer contain the phrase, "Hallowed be Your name"? The phrase follows the opening of the prayer, which directly addresses God, so we know that the phrase means that God's name should be hallowed. When we review the dictionary definition of hallowed, we can understand why God should be hallowed, but why should His name be hallowed?
God's names were considered by the Jews to be just as holy as God Himself. In fact, God's names were and are so holy to the Jews, that they never write His full name for fear of bringing disrespect to it and to God.
In the Lord's prayer, the phrase, "Hallowed be Your name" is appropriate, because not only is God holy, but His name is holy too. We should never treat God's name with disrespect as some do when they curse and use God's name in vain. It is a command of God in 10 Commandments given to Moses!!!! We should give the same respect and honor to God's name that we give to God because He and His name are one in the same.

1 احْذَرُوا مِنْ أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِرَّكُمْ أَمَامَ النَّاسِ بِقَصْدِ أَنْ يَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْكُمْ. وَإِلاَّ، فَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ مُكَافَأَةٌ عِنْدَ أَبِيكُمُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ.
2 فَإِذَا تَصَدَّقْتَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ، فَلاَ تَنْفُخْ أَمَامَكَ فِي الْبُوقِ، كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْمُرَاؤُونَ فِي الْمَجَامِعِ وَالشَّوَارِعِ، لِيَمْدَحَهُمُ النَّاسُ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.
3 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تَتَصَدَّقُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ، فَلاَ تَدَعْ يَدَكَ الْيُسْرَى تَعْرِفُ مَا تَفْعَلُهُ الْيُمْنَى.
4 لِتَكُونَ صَدَقَتُكَ فِي الْخَفَاءِ، وَأَبُوكَ السَّمَاوِيُّ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.
5 وَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلُّونَ، لاَ تَكُونُوا مِثْلَ الْمُرَائِينَ الَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا وَاقِفِينَ فِي الْمَجَامِعِ وَفِي زَوَايَا الشَّوَارِعِ لِيَرَاهُمُ النَّاسُ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.
6 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلِّي، فَادْخُلْ غُرْفَتَكَ، وَأَغْلِقِ الْبَابَ عَلَيْكَ، وَصَلِّ إِلَى أَبِيكَ الَّذِي فِي الْخَفَاءِ. وَأَبُوكَ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.
7 وَعِنْدَمَا تُصَلُّونَ، لاَ تُكَرِّرُوا كَلاماً فَارِغاً كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْوَثَنِيُّونَ، ظَنّاً مِنْهُمْ أَنَّهُ بِالإِكْثَارِ مِنَ الْكَلامِ، يُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ.
8 فَلاَ تَكُونُوا مِثْلَهُمْ، لأَنَّ أَبَاكُمْ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَيْهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْأَلُوهُ.
9 فَصَلُّوا أَنْتُمْ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الصَّلاَةِ: أَبَانَا الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، لِيَتَقَدَّسِ اسْمُكَ!
10 لِيَأْتِ مَلَكُوتُكَ! لِتَكُنْ مَشِيئَتُكَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كَمَا هِيَ فِي السَّمَاءِ!
11 خُبْزَنَا كَفَافَنَا أَعْطِنَا الْيَوْمَ!
12 وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا، كَمَا نَغْفِرُ نَحْنُ لِلْمُذْنِبِينَ إِلَيْنَا!
13 وَلاَ تُدْخِلْنَا فِي تَجْرِبَةٍ، لَكِنْ نَجِّنَا مِنَ الشِّرِّيرِ، لأَنَّ لَكَ الْمُلْكَ وَالْقُوَّةَ وَالْمَجْدَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. آمِين.
14 فَإِنْ غَفَرْتُمْ لِلنَّاسِ زَلاَّتِهِمْ، يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ أَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ زَلاَّتِكُمْ.
15 وَإِنْ لَمْ تَغْفِرُوا لِلنَّاسِ، لاَ يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ أَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ زَلاَّتِكُمْ.
16 وَعِنْدَمَا تَصُومُونَ، لاَ تَكُونُوا عَابِسِي الْوُجُوهِ، كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْمُرَاؤُونَ الَّذِينَ يُقَطِّبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمْ لِكَيْ يَظْهَرُوا لِلنَّاسِ صَائِمِينَ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَالُوا مُكَافَأَتَهُمْ.
17 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تَصُومُ، فَاغْسِلْ وَجْهَكَ، وَعَطِّرْ رَأْسَكَ،
18 لِكَيْ لاَ تَظْهَرَ لِلنَّاسِ صَائِماً، بَلْ لأَبِيكَ الَّذِي فِي الْخَفَاءِ. وَأَبُوكَ الَّذِي يَرَى فِي الْخَفَاءِ، هُوَ يُكَافِئُكَ.
19 لاَ تَكْنِزُوا لَكُمْ كُنُوزاً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، حَيْثُ يُفْسِدُهَا السُّوسُ وَالصَّدَأُ، وَيَنْقُبُ عَنْهَا اللُّصُوصُ وَيَسْرِقُونَ.
20 بَلِ اكْنِزُوا لَكُمْ كُنُوزاً فِي السَّمَاءِ، حَيْثُ لاَ يُفْسِدُهَا سُوسٌ وَلاَ يَنْقُبُ عَنْهَا لُصُوصٌ وَلاَ يَسْرِقُونَ.
21 فَحَيْثُ يَكُونُ كَنْزُكَ، هُنَاكَ أَيْضاً يَكُونُ قَلْبُكَ !
22 الْعَيْنُ مِصْبَاحُ الْجَسَدِ. فَإِنْ كَانَتْ عَيْنُكَ سَلِيمَةً، يَكُونُ جَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ مُنَوَّراً.
23 وَإِنْ كَانَتْ عَيْنُكَ سَيِّئَةً، يَكُونُ جَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ مُظْلِماً. فَإِذَا كَانَ النُّورُ الَّذِي فِيكَ ظَلاَماً، فَمَا أَشَدَّ الظَّلاَمَ!
24 لاَ يُمْكِنُ لأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَبْداً لِسَيِّدَيْنِ: لأَنَّهُ إِمَّا أَنْ يُبْغِضَ أَحَدَهُمَا فَيُحِبَّ الآخَرَ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَلْزَمَ أَحَدَهُمَا فَيَهْجُرَ الآخَرَ. لاَ يُمْكِنُكُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا عَبِيداً لِلهِ وَالْمَالِ مَعاً.
25 لِذلِكَ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لاَ تَهْتَمُّوا لِمَعِيشَتِكُمْ بِشَأْنِ مَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَمَا تَشْرَبُونَ، وَلاَ لأَجْسَادِكُمْ بِشَأْنِ مَا تَكْتَسُونَ. أَلَيْسَتِ الْحَيَاةُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ طَعَامٍ، وَالْجَسَدُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ كِسَاءٍ؟
26 تَأَمَّلُوا طُيُورَ السَّمَاءِ: إِنَّهَا لاَ تَزْرَعُ وَلاَ تَحْصُدُ وَلاَ تَجْمَعُ فِي مَخَازِنَ، وَأَبُوكُمُ السَّمَاوِيُّ يَعُولُهَا. أَفَلَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَفْضَلَ مِنْهَا كَثِيراً؟
27 فَمَنْ مِنْكُمْ إِذَا حَمَلَ الْهُمُومَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطِيلَ عُمْرَهُ وَلَوْ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً؟
28 وَلِمَاذَا تَحْمِلُونَ هَمَّ الْكِسَاءِ؟ تَأَمَّلُوا زَنَابِقَ الْحَقْلِ كَيْفَ تَنْمُو: إِنَّهَا لاَ تَتْعَبُ وَلاَ تَغْزِلُ؛
29 وَلَكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: حَتَّى سُلَيْمَانُ فِي قِمَّةِ مَجْدِهِ لَمْ يَكْتَسِ مَا يُعَادِلُ وَاحِدَةً مِنْهَا بَهَاءً!
30 فَإِنْ كَانَ اللهُ هَكَذَا يَكْسُو الأَعْشَابَ الْبَرِّيَّةَ مَعَ أَنَّهَا تُوْجَدُ الْيَوْمَ وَتُطْرَحُ غَداً فِي النَّارِ، أَفَلَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ، يَاقَلِيلِي الإِيمَانِ، أَحْرَى جِدّاً بِأَنْ يَكْسُوَكُمْ؟
31 فَلاَ تَحْمِلُوا الْهَمَّ قَائِلِينَ: مَا عَسَانَا نَأْكُلُ؟ أَوْ: مَا عَسَانَا نَشْرَبُ؟ أَوْ: مَا عَسَانَا نَكْتَسِي؟
32 فَهَذِهِ الْحَاجَاتُ كُلُّهَا تَسْعَى إِلَيْهَا الأُمَمُ. فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمُ السَّمَاوِيَّ يَعْلَمُ حَاجَتَكُمْ إِلَى هَذِهِ كُلِّهَا.
33 أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ، فَاطْلُبُوا أَوَّلاً مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ وَبِرِّهِ، وَهَذِهِ كُلُّهَا تُزَادُ لَكُمْ.
34 لاَ تَهْتَمُّوا بِأَمْرِ الْغَدِ، فَإِنَّ الْغَدَ يَهْتَمُّ بِأَمْرِ نَفْسِهِ. يَكْفِي كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مَا فِيهِ مِنْ سُوءٍ!
Matthew 6
Do Good to Please God
1 �Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 3 But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.
The Model Prayer
5 �And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 6 But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. 7 And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.
8 �Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. 9 In this manner, therefore, pray:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10 Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
13 And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
14 �For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Fasting to Be Seen Only by God
16 �Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18 so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
Lay Up Treasures in Heaven
19 �Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
The Lamp of the Body
22 �The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
You Cannot Serve God and Riches
24 �No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Do Not Worry
25 �Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28 �So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 �Therefore do not worry, saying, �What shall we eat?� or �What shall we drink?� or �What shall we wear?� 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
