  1. God of all ages
  2. .i Philip Coutts
  3. God of all ages
  4. and Lord for all time,
  5. Creator of all things
  6. in perfect design:
  7. for fields ripe for harvest,
  8. for rich golden grain,
  9. for beauty in nature,
  10. we thank you again.
  11. God of all nations
  12. and Lord of all lands,
  13. who placed the world's wealth
  14. in the palm of our hands,
  15. we pray for Your guidance
  16. to guard against greed.
  17. though great the resources,
  18. still great is the need.
  19. God of compassion
  20. and Lord of all life,
  21. we pray for Your people
  22. in conflict and strife.
  23. The earth you created
  24. a vast treasure store,
  25. yet a hunger still thrives
  26. while men fight to gain more.
  27. God of all wisdom,
  28. take us by the hand
  29. and insight bestow
  30. when we ruin Your land.
  31. For rivers polluted,
  32. for forests laid bare,
  33. we pray Your forgiveness
  34. for failing to care.
  35. God of all greatness
  36. and giver of light,
  37. with each sunlit morning
  38. we worship Your might,
  39. our half-hearted service
  40. Your only reward:
  41. for love beyond measure,
  42. we thank You, O Lord.
  43. ~
