God is in nature's cycles (Vol 2 No 39)
God in nature’s cycles, thankfully we sing
For the hush of Autumn and new life in Spring;
For the frost in Winter and the Sumner sun,
For each season’s beauty and each year begun.
Welcomed by creation as an honoured guest,
Grateful for her bounties; we are truly blest.
God revealed around us; everywhere we see
Colour, sounds and movement seeking harmony;
Plenty in the storehouse, but we must take care
To preserve our water, not pollute our air.
Welcomed by creation as an honoured guest,
Grateful for her bounties; we are truly blest.
God unveiled in nature, giving gen’rously
Of such precious bounty, and so constantly;
All this wealth is free; it’s there for us to take;
We should pledge protection for our children’s sake.
Welcomed by creation as an honoured guest,
Grateful for her bounties; we are truly blest.
God in world’s uncharted, God within our own;
God disguised in myst’ry, God in flesh and bone;
At all times and places God is sensed to be
Deeply partnered in our world’s diversity.
God, in all creation, wills us lovingly
To be gentle carers of earth’s destiny.
