The Lord’s Prayer, a paraphrase

This has been my prayer for the last several days. I can’t get it out of my head.

You are our Father, reigning from above

You define Holy.

Bring Your Kingdom here.

You are doing Your will here and through out the universe.

Feed us today with the only thing that really sustains us.

Forgive us for what we’ve done wrong.

Please help us forgive those who’ve wronged us.

Help us keep our noses clean; save us from the evil we always find.

Let us declare that this is Your world.

All power comes from You.

All glory goes to You.

We acknowledge these things will never stop, You will always have all the power and fame.

Amen.

We agree.

I agree.

    Where did you get this prayer, Adam. It’s beautiful. Did you rewrite it?

    Todd- it’s a prayer I wrote down here as I recited the Lord’s Prayer to myself over and over. So I guess I re-wrote it. I just wanted to document it before it went away, if that makes sense.
