Here is a new version of the Lord’s Prayer written
by Parker J. Palmer. It comes from Spirituality
and Practice.
Lord’s Prayer: Father,
Mother
(inspired by Matthew 6: 9-13, Luke 11: 2-4)
Heavenly Father, heavenly Mother,
Holy and blessed is your true
name.
We pray for your reign of peace
to come,
We pray that your good will be
done,
Let heaven and earth become one.
Give us this day the bread we
need,
Give it to those who have none.
Let forgiveness flow like a river
between us,
From each one to each one.
Lead us to holy innocence
Beyond the evil of our days —
Come swiftly Mother, Father,
come.
For yours is the power and the
glory and the mercy:
Forever your name is All in One.
