O.Editorial Note: Post Office But we have lost the version of the Lords Prayer have searched and searched but cannot find it I will send you the one I use in Church I beg you will pardon this loss, we are not settled and every thing is new

The Lords Prayer

By Mrs. M B Glover Eddy

Principle eternal and harmonious,

Nameless and adorable As Written: adoreable Intelligence,

Thou art supreme;

And when the supremacy of Spirit shall appear the dream of matter shall disappear

Give us the understanding of Truth and Love

And loving we shall learn

God and Truth will destroy error

And lead us unto the Life that is Soul and deliver us from these errors of sense - sin, sickness and death.

For God is Truth, Life & Love forever, SobeitEditorial Note: So be it.

I think this is the better version more simple and direct, what think you?

Ever truly
