Daddy, Forgive Me

The Lord’s Prayer, in today’s English
[Note: Abba, in direct translation, is “Daddy”]

Abba, we acknowledge you as our Father, our religious Leader.
We want your wishes to be respected by us, and by others,
both in heaven, and here on earth. Thank you for helping us, for the daily food you provide us.
Teach us to love as you do, so that we may experience your Love.
Teach us to forgive others, so that you may forgive us.
Teach us to give lovingly to others, so that we might receive your grace.
Teach us to show mercy to others, so that we become worthy of yours.

As Jesus the Christ taught us to pray,
So be it

That sounds like the Korean word for father/dad which is ahpuhjee or ahppa for short.
