A Modern Lord's Prayer
- Our Father, who shall be termed party of
- the first part, whose place of business
- is in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
-
- Thy Kingdom, pursuant to terms and
- conditions, come.
-
- Thy will, duly uncontested, be done on
- earth, inasfar as existing statutes
- permit, as it is in Heaven.
-
- Give us this Thirty-first day of
- December, 2000, our daily bread.
-
- Forgive us our debts, notwithstanding
- claims, liens and legal costs, as we,
- who shall be termed party of the second
- part, forgive our debtors.
-
- And lead us not into temptation, i.e.
- sin, corruption, greed, gluttony, etc.,
- but deliver us from evil, the nature of
- which shall be determined by the court.
-
- For thine is the Kingdom, and the Power,
- and, pending appeal, the Glory forever.
- Amen.
