The Lord’s Prayer
A simple homophonic setting based on liturgical chanting in the Russian tradition. The concluding acclamation “For Thine is the kingdom” is omitted here, making it suitable for use in services where it is separated from the main text by a prayer as in the Western Church, or chanted by the presiding clergy as in the Byzantine Rite.
