Here’s
the Lord’s Prayer from Eugene Peterson’s The
Message.
Lord’s Prayer
(Matthew 6: 9-13)
Our
Father in heaven,
Reveal
who you are.
Set the
world right;
Do what's
best --
As above,
so below.
Keep us
alive with three square meals.
Keep us
forgiven with you and forgiving others.
You're in
charge!
You can
do anything you want!
You're
ablaze in beauty!
Yes. Yes. Yes.
