Let all creation dance

in energies sublime,

as order turns with chance,

unfolding space and time;

for nature’s art

in glory grows,

and newly shows

God’s mind and heart.

God’s breath each force unfurls,

igniting from a spark

expanding starry swirls,

with whirlpools dense and dark.

Though moon and sun

seem mindless things,

each orbit sings:

your will be done.

Our own amazing earth,

with sunlight, cloud and storms,

and life’s abundant growth

in lovely shapes and forms

is made for praise,

a fragile whole,

and from its soul

heaven’s music plays.

Lift heart and soul and voice:

in Christ all praises meet,

and nature shall rejoice

as all is made complete.

In hope be strong,

all life befriend,

and kindly tend

creation’s song.
