Something so familiar and yet so totally transformed in this reading by Simone Weil of the Our Father:

“The Our Father contains all possible petitions; we cannot conceive of any prayer not already contained in it. It is to prayer what Christ is to humanity. It is impossible to say it once through, giving the fullest possible attention to each word, without a change, infinitesimal perhaps but real, taking place in the soul.”

Perhaps her reading from the Greek translation will help you to give the fullest possible attention to each word.
