The Lord’s Prayer
… as I memorized as a child and recited ~1000 times well into adulthood. I loved the old KJV English:
“Our Father who art in heaven: Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.”
But wait! There’s more:
The below is originally in Aramaic … before Emperor Constantine (~300 AD) and later the King James Version versioned (1611 AD) it.
The Original Lord’s Prayer
O Birther! Father-Mother of the Cosmos, you create all that moves in light. (Our Father who art in heaven: Hallowed be thy name.)
Focus your light within us — make it useful: as the rays of a beacon show the way. (Thy kingdom come.)
Unite our “I can” to yours, so that we walk as kings and queens with every creature. (Thy will be done.)
Create in me a divine cooperation — from many selves, one voice, one action. Grant what we need each day in bread and insight. (Give us this day our daily bread.)
Forgive our hidden past, the secret shames, as we consistently forgive what others hide. (And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.)
Deceived neither by the outer nor the inner — free us to walk your path with joy. (And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.)
From you is born all ruling will, the power and life to do, the song that beautifies all from age to age it renews. (For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.)
Amen. (Amen.)

Paramhansa Yogananda
“A child is born on that day and at that hour when the celestial rays are in mathematical harmony with his individual karma. His horoscope is a challenging portrait, revealing his unalterable past and its probable future results. But the natal chart can be rightly interpreted only by men of intuitive wisdom: these are few.
“The message boldly blazoned across the heavens at the moment of birth is not meant to emphasize fate — the result of past good and evil — but to arouse man’s will to escape from his universal thralldom. What he has done, he can undo. None other than himself was the instigator of the causes of whatever effects are now prevalent in his life. He can overcome any limitation because he created it by his own actions in the first place, and because he has spiritual resources which are not subject to planetary pressure.”
— Swami Sri Yukteswar in”Autobiography of a Yogi”, by Paramhansa Yogananda
