Here’s a
refreshing paraphrase of the Lord’s Prayer from Mark Berry. It was posted on the jonnybaker blog.
O Breathing Life
(inspired by Matthew 6: 9-13, Luke 11: 2-4)
O Breathing Life, your Name
shines everywhere!
Release a space to plant your
Presence here.
Imagine your possibilities now.
Embody your desire in every light
and form.
Grow through us this moment's
bread and wisdom.
Untie the knots of failure
binding us,
as we release the strands we hold
of others' faults.
Help us not forget our Source,
yet free us from not being in the
Present.
From you arises every Vision,
Power and Song from gathering to
gathering.
Amen! May our future actions grow from here!
