An Earth Day Prayer

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: April 25, 2010

A musical reminder that we are earth's stewards…

Earth Day invites us to sing our praises
for plains and prairies where cattle grazes,
for fruits and veggies God made for our delight.
We are most grateful for our food.

The earth God gave us is ours to treasure.
It is His footstool, a source of pleasure.
We've been entrusted to cherish what He loves.
Earth Day reminds us all to care.

Our precious planet is ours to nurture.
Our present choices impact its future.
Like Michael Medved, we all should pick up trash
doing our part on God's green earth.

* The above dinner prayer can be sung to the tune for "This Land is Your Land"

** Check out what my friend and neighbor Michael Medved has to say about "doing our part" to keep our earth clean. http://www.wnd.com/index.php?pageId=15531
