The Lord’s Prayer

The words of the Lord’s Prayer are repeated so often that the meaning of the words can be lost. This version seeks to express the meaning of the original words in a fresh way.

The Lord’s Prayer

God, it’s wonderful to have You as our Father in heaven.
You are very precious to us, and we want it to stay that way.
We want Your Kingdom to keep on coming.
We want what You want to happen here and all over the earth,
Just like it does in heaven.
We are trusting You today to give us all we need.
Please set us free from any wrongs we have done.
We set free anyone who has done wrong against us.
We want our lives to be guided by You,
So that we don’t find ourselves in places where we are likely to do wrong.
Keep us safe from the devil and all that is evil.
You are our King.
You are more powerful than anything else.
Everything about You is wonderful, and always will be!
