Editing Lord's Prayer (section)

====Varied liturgical use====
In the [[Byzantine Rite]], whenever a priest is officiating, after the last line of the prayer he intones the doxology, "For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory: of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages.",{{efn|In Greek: {{lang|grc|Ὅτι σοῦ ἐστὶν ἡ βασιλεία καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ δόξα· τοῦ Πατρὸς καὶ τοῦ Υἱοῦ καὶ τοῦ Ἁγίου Πνεύματος· νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.}}}} and in either instance, reciter(s) of the prayer reply "Amen".

Adding a doxology to the Our Father is not part of the liturgical tradition of the [[Roman Rite]] nor does the Latin [[Vulgate]] of St. [[Jerome]] contain the doxology that appears in late Greek manuscripts. However, it is recited since 1970 in the Roman Rite [[Order of Mass]], not as part of the Lord's Prayer but separately as a response acclamation after the [[Embolism (liturgy)|embolism]] developing the seventh petition in the perspective of the Final Coming of Christ.

In most Anglican editions of the ''[[Book of Common Prayer]]'', the Lord's Prayer ends with the doxology unless it is preceded by the [[Kyrie|Kyrie eleison]]. This happens at the daily offices of Morning Prayer ([[Mattins]]) and Evening Prayer ([[Evensong]]) and in a few other offices.{{Efn|For instance, in [http://www.churchofengland.org/prayer-worship/worship/texts/principal-services/word/mornevebcp/morningbcp.aspx Morning Prayer] the doxology is included in the Lord's Prayer in the Introduction, but not in the Prayers after the Apostles' Creed because it is preceded by the ''Kyrie eleison''.}}

The vast majority of [[Protestantism|Protestant]] churches conclude the Lord's Prayer with the doxology.
