I used to attend the Santa Monica Church in Los Angeles and heard a version of Our Lord's Prayer that had this basic melody and chords at the beginning. It enchanted me. I can't find a recording of it anywhere. So I've sketched out here what I remember, with some of my own embellishments up until "And forgive us our trespasses" at which point I'm freestyling with my own chords and interpretation. But I think it makes a nice melodic-mnemonic for learning the Our Father. (My apologies to the original composers of the melody and chords.)
