The Lord's Prayer (Albert Hay Malotte song)

"The Lord's Prayer" is a musical setting of the biblical Lord's Prayer, composed by Albert Hay Malotte in 1935, and recorded by many notable singers. According to his New York Times obituary: "Mr. Malotte's musical setting of 'The Lord's Prayer' was the first one that achieved popularity, although the prayer had been set to music many times before." Malotte dedicated the song to baritone John Charles Thomas, whose radio performances introduced it to the public.
