As our congregation has been working through Luke's Gospel, we recently came to the Disciples' Prayer [aka "The Lord's Prayer"] in chapter 11 and we took a great deal of time to notice the pronouns. The only pronouns Christ gave us to pray were You [Thou] to the Father and first person plural [us, we, our]. Here is a great summary of that point from a different angle - the stories of Wendell Barry as described by Eugene Peterson. Enjoy!
