Text
The Chinese text of The Lord’s Prayer (天主經), sung in Cantonese.

我們的天父，
願祢的名受顯揚；
願祢的國來臨；
願祢的旨意奉行在人間，
如同在天上。
求祢今天賞給我們日用的食糧；
求祢寬恕我們的罪過，
如同我們寬恕別人一樣；
不要讓我們陷於誘惑，
但救我們免於凶惡。

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.
