Caring for the Earth
Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #694 (1995) Topics: God's World Care of the Earth; Care of the Earth First Line: We have faith Lyrics: We have faith
in one God, one Source of all life,
One Ground of the whole earth, with all its creatures.
And thus we believe
in the goodness of earth's life,
in the innate worth of all its dependents,
in human partnership, in the life of nature.
And thus we believe
that in Christ we have been shown
the special role of the human race
to bear God's likeness
in working and caring for the earth,
in seeking to understand its mysteries and powers,
in gently working with these powers
for the well-being of all children of the earth.
And thus we believe
that God's Spirit will lead us
to sensitive closeness with earth's life,
to that meek, unselfish and compassionate life-style
by which the earth is inherited in peace,
by which its life is transformed
for all creatures to share justly in its bounty.
So be it. Amen. Languages: English

beats the falling rain;
now a whispered murmur,
now a louder strain.

on an ancient drum
beat the mellow music
bidding life to come.
3 Chords of life awakened,
notes of greening spring,
rise and fall triumphant
over ev'rything.
4 Slender, silv'ry drumsticks
beat the long tattoo;
God the Great Musician,
calling life anew. Languages: English Tune Title: EARTH DRUM

Creator God, You Made the Earth
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #4a (2009) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Creation/Earth Day/Environmnet Lyrics: Creator God, you made the earth,
A gift beyond comparing!
You called it good, you gave it worth,
You placed it in our caring.
You gave your gift of Sabbath rest,
Your pattern for creation.
You give us times to heal, to bless,
To join in celebration.
You give us Christ, who reconciled
The things of earth and heaven.
In him, you call each one your child!
What wondrous love you've given!
Because we've turned away from you,
This world still needs your healing.
Creation longs to be made new
Through Christ, your love revealing.
God, by your Spirit, may we be
Communities of caring,
That as we're healed, your world may see
The hope that we are sharing. Scripture: Colossians 3:12-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA

Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #77 Meter: 10.10.10.10.8.8 Topics: Peace on Earth Lyrics: 1 God comes to earth in Jesus, our brother,
telling the dreams that he has for the world --
lion and lamb will lie down together,
poor ones and rich share food with each other,
and anger will cool into peace --
everywhere there will be peace.
2 Coming to earth in Jesus, our brother,
God shows the way to his dreams for the world --
people will end their conflict and warfare,
nations will turn all their weapons to plowshares,
and hatred will fade into peace --
everywhere there will be peace.
3 God, help us live like Jesus, our brother,
bringing to life your great dreams for the world --
sharing our life with each neighbor and stranger,
living in love with our brother and sister,
till all through the world there is peace --
everywhere there will be peace. Languages: English
