Touch the earth lightly Use the earth gently
Nourish the life of the world in our care
Gift of great wonder Ours to surrender
Trust for the children tomorrow will bear
We who endanger Who create hunger
Agents of death for all creatures that live
We who would foster Clouds of disaster
God of our planet forestall and forgive
Let there be greening Birth from the burning
Water that blesses and air that is sweet
Health in God's garden Hope in God's children
Regeneration that peace will complete
God of all living God of all loving
God of the seedling the snow and the sun
Teach us deflect us Christ reconnect us
Using us gently and making us one
