The Lord's Prayer

Jon Marc Hammer developed the Aramaic translated version of the Lord's Prayer shown below from earlier work done by Neil Douglas Klotz. Jon Marc Hamer provided these comments on the origins of the Aramaic based version.

Translated from the original language of Jesus (Aramaic) Traditional
Father-Mother of the Cosmos,
Shimmering Light of All.
Our Father which art in Heaven,
Focus your Light Within us
As we breathe Your Holy Breath.
Hallowed by thy Name,
Enter the sanctuary of our hearts
Uniting within us the sacred rays
Of Your Power and Beauty.
Thy Kingdom come,
Let Your Heart's desire
Unite heaven and earth
Through our sacred union.
Thy will be done,
On earth, as it is in heaven.
Help us fulfill what lies within
The circle of our lives today.
Give us this day our daily bread
Forgive our secret fears
As we freely choose
To forgive the secret fears of others
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors
Let us not enter forgetfulness
Tempted by false appearances
And leave us not in temptation
But deliver us from evil
For from Your astonishing Fire
Comes the Eternal Song which sanctifies all,
Renewed eternally
In our lives, and
Throughout all creation.
For Thine is the Kingdom,
The Power and the Glory,
For ever and ever.
We seal these words in our hearts,
Committed in trust and faith.
Amen
