Do you have the tendency to quit when the going gets tough? Not this 4-year old Ghanaian girl! Listen to her as she recites “The Lord’s Prayer” — the best she can. (Click on the arrow to play.)

For those of you who are not familiar with this Christian prayer, this is what the little girl is saying:

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,

for ever and ever.

Amen.
