Editor’s Note: When I first heard this prayer during a high mass for the Church of Mary Magdalene I sensed the importance of this version of The Lord’s Prayer from a feminine perspective.
Our Mother, Thou who art in the heart of Gaia,
May the holiness of Thy name awaken our remembering.
May the breath of Thy loving presence
Warm the hearts of all who wander homeless.
May the resurrection of Thy memory
Renew our faith eternally.
We receive this day Your nurturing substance
To fill our cup of need,
And implore Thee to forgive us for forgetting Thee.
We ready ourselves to receive Your blessings.
Mother, lead us toward the light
And the birth of the Christ within.
For Love is the Kingdom
Nurturing is the Power,
And Your wisdom with all merciful grace is the Glory
For all peoples, now and forevermore!
- AMEN.
