- Lawyer'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, to be done on earth,
- in so far as existing statues permit, as it is in Heaven.
-
- Give is this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debs,
- 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
