All I'm doing is making a note of the wording
difference! They don't quite convey the same idea
for me; but I think that may well be because
'mine' is the ancient and venerable form hallowed
by the use of millions of English speaking
prayers over the last x centuries :) while this
other wording sounds like some newfangled
construsion that they're trying to foist on us
and just doesn't sound right! ;)
