- God of all ages
- .i Philip Coutts
-
- God of all ages
- and Lord for all time,
- Creator of all things
- in perfect design:
- for fields ripe for harvest,
- for rich golden grain,
- for beauty in nature,
- we thank you again.
-
- God of all nations
- and Lord of all lands,
- who placed the world's wealth
- in the palm of our hands,
- we pray for Your guidance
- to guard against greed.
- though great the resources,
- still great is the need.
-
- God of compassion
- and Lord of all life,
- we pray for Your people
- in conflict and strife.
- The earth you created
- a vast treasure store,
- yet a hunger still thrives
- while men fight to gain more.
-
- God of all wisdom,
- take us by the hand
- and insight bestow
- when we ruin Your land.
- For rivers polluted,
- for forests laid bare,
- we pray Your forgiveness
- for failing to care.
-
- God of all greatness
- and giver of light,
- with each sunlit morning
- we worship Your might,
- our half-hearted service
- Your only reward:
- for love beyond measure,
- we thank You, O Lord.
