Roman Catholic AnswerThe Our Father was given to the disciples by Jesus, it is recorded in Matthew 6:9-15; and Luke 11:2-4. It was probably included in the Mass from the very start (at Pentecost) and was known, through the Middle Ages, as the Pater Noster up until the reformation, as the even peasants with no education recited the Pater Noster in Latin. The term "The Lord's Prayer" did not come into use until the reformation, and to this day is mostly used by Protestants. In English it has always been known either as the Pater Noster or the Our Father.
