Riches I need not,
                                nor all the world's praise,
                                  thou mine inheritance
                                   through all my days;
                                   thou, and thou only,
                                   the first in my heart,
                                  high King of heaven,
                                  my treasure thou art!

                                  High King of heaven
                                  when battle is done,
                                grant heaven's joy to me,
                                  O bright heav'n's sun;
                                 Christ of my own heart,
                                    whatever befall,
                                   still be my vision,
                                     O Ruler of all.

                        Thanksgiving Prayers for Jonathan’s life

                We finish the prayers by saying together The Lord’s Prayer:

                              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, the power, and the glory,
                               Forever and ever.  Amen.
