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.
For we are just passing thru, we are so temporary,
we are so initial, but this we must do.
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!
For we are just passing thru, we are so temporary,
we are so initial, but this we must do.
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.
For we are just passing thru, we are so temporary,
we are so initial, but this we must do.
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.
For we are just passing thru, we are so temporary,
we are so initial, but this we must do.
