This is as good a place as any to store this

The Lord's Prayer in Old English (162 pp. 17-18)
Ðu ure fæder
þu ðe eart on heofonum
sy þin nama gehalgod
cume þin rice
si þin willa
on eorðan swa swa on heofonum
syle us todæg urne dæghwamlice hlaf
and forgyf us ure gyltas
swa swa we forgyfað þam ðe wið us agyltað
and ne gelæ[d] þu na us on costnunge
ac alys us fram yfele
sy hit swa.
