A Revised Our Father

Dearest God And Holy Father Of All,
Who Surrounds Us With Love,
Glorify Your Sacred Name,
Complete Your Holy Kingdom Here On Earth,
And Establish Your Will On Earth, As It Is In Heaven.
Increase Our Faith And Bless Us With The Holy Spirit,
Satisfy Our True Needs,
And Forgive Us Our Sins;
As We Forgive Those Who Have Harmed Us.
Shield Us From Temptation
And Save Us From Evil,
For All Power And Glory Descend From You,
Who Is Deserving Of Eternal Praise.
Amen

Antiphon: God knows the fish of the sea, and the stars of the sky, every one by its own name.

Bless our Maker

Bless our Maker
Bless our Caretaker

Forgive our sin
Forgive we the sinner

Feed us what we need
Lead us in your love

Guide us in right
Guide us with might
Guide us with your light

Our Father

When the world seems dark,
and my way unclear, hopeless, or pointless,
I find the following prayer
is very helpful.

I suggest praying it slowly, and with intention, and if you get distracted, start over.

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and
ever.

Amen
