Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or father:

    “To you, God the Singer, our voices we raise,
    to you Song Incarnate, we give all our praise,
    to you, Holy Spirit, our life and our breath,
    be glory for ever, through life and through death.”
    —Peter Davison (20th century)

    “At dawn of morn, and close of even,
    To lift your heart and hands to Heaven.
    In double beauty say your prayer:
    Our Father first, then Notre Pere.
    And, dearest child, along the day,
    In every thing you do and say,
    Obey and please my lord and lady,
    So God shall love and angels aid ye.”
    —Matthew Prior (1664–1721)
