A Responsive Lord's Prayer
Our Father which art in Heaven,
Remind us constantly that you are parent to all your children,
Whoever, or wherever they are or come from.
Hallowed be Thy name.
Thy Kingdom come,
Establishing peace and justice, hope and life for all peoples.
Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
Disturb us into awareness of the needs of others.
and Forgive us our trespasses,
Our pride and our prejudices.
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
and Lead us not into temptation,
Especially keep our hearts and minds open
To see the good in others.
but Deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
Just and true,
The power,
Gentle and fair,
And the glory,
Shot through with the colors of love,
Forever.
Forever.
Amen.
