MiLady, if you're referring to the red/blue/white banner in this image -


That is a Jacobite Standard.

[MiLadyCeilidh]

That's the one Mike, thanks!

[mairead]

In the picture with me reading the prayer, It was the old Scottish version of the Lord's prayer which we use, not the modern Anglified version.

Mike, I will email you a copy of this if you ever want to use it an an event.

[MacPatrick]

Mairead,

I would like to have a copy too, we may be able to use it in a Kirk'n service.

[Mike]

It's quite beautiful. Mairead, I hope you'll not mind me sharing it here.

The Scots Lord Prayer Circa 1560

Our Father which in Heaven art,

And make us all one brotherhood;

We call upon thee with our heart,

Our heavenly Father and our God;

Grant we pray not with lips alone,

But with the hearts deep sigh and grone.

Thy Blessed Name be sanctified,

Thyne holy Word mought us inflame;

In holy life for to abide,

To magnify thine holy Name;

From all errors defend and keep,

The little flock of thy poor sheep.

Thy Kingdome come even at this hour,

And henceforth everlasting;

Thine Holy Ghost into us power,

With all his gifts most plenteously;

From Satan’s rage and filthy band,

Defend us with thy mighty hand.

They will be done with diligence,

Like as in heaven on earth also;

In trouble grant us patience,

Thee to obey in wealth and woe;

Let not flesh, blood nor any ill,

Prevail against thine holy will.

Give us this day our daily bread,

And all other good gifts of thine;

Keep us from war, and from bloodshed,

And from sickness, dearth and pine;

That we may live in quietness,

Without all greedy carefulness.

Forgive us our offences all,

Relieve our careful conscience;

As we forgive both great and small,

Who unto us have done offence;

Prepare us Lord to serve thee,

In perfect love and unity.

Amid the great trial lead us,

That evil overtake us not;

For the Kingdome within us is Thine,

With its Power and its Glory;

Even for ever more,

Amen.

[mairead]

Delighted that you posted it here Mike. I find it rather beautiful myself, and wherever I have read this, people have approached me for a copy, so when I go to an event where I am to take the prayer, I carry a few copies with me.

[MacPatrick]

Thank You Mairead,

I sent my minister a copy and made a copy for myself.
