Opening Program (Basic Catechism Devotion for Start-of-Day)

Invocation

In the name of the Father, and of the Son (✝), and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Apostles' Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty,

Maker of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ,

His only Son, our Lord;

Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,

born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified,
died and was buried.

He descended into hell;

The third day He rose again from the dead;

He ascended into heaven

and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

From there He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,

the holy Christian Church,
the Communion of Saints,
the Forgiveness of sins,
the Resurrection of the body,
and the Life everlasting.

Amen.

The Lord's Prayer

(Track 1 on CD)

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.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power,

and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Luther's Morning Prayer

(Track 2 on CD)

I thank you, my heavenly Father,

through Jesus Christ, Your dear Son,

that You have kept me this night

from all harm and danger.

And I pray You to protect me this day also

from sin and every evil,

That all my doings and life may please You;
For into Your hands I commend myself,

my body and soul, and all things.

Let Your holy angel be with me,

that the wicked foe may have no power over me.

Amen.
