Loving God, all your creation calls you blessed.
Your spirit imprints the whole universe with life and mystery.
Yes, all creation proclaims your love.
We join this chorus of praise.

Loving God, as you lure the whole world into salvation,
guide us with your Spirit that we might not be only pilgrims on the earth,
but pilgrims with the earth, journeying home to you.

Open our hearts to understand the intimate relationship
that you have with all creation.
Only with this faith can we hope for tomorrow's children.
Amen. Alleluia!
