Pray for the Wilderness
Author: Dan Damon Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #557 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Pray for the wilderness, vanishing vast Lyrics: 1 Pray for the wilderness, vanishing fast,
pray for the rain forest, open and vast;
Pray for the waterfalls, pray for the trees,
pray for the planet brought down by degrees.
2 Learn from the elephant, eagle, and whale,
learn from the dragonfly, spider, and snail;
Learn from the people in neighboring lands,
learn from the children who play in their sands.
3 Work for the justice created things need,
work for the health of each plant and its seed;
Work for the creatures abuse has betrayed,
work for the garden God's wisdom once made.
4 Trust that God's Christ overcame nails and wood,
trust that earth's people will turn to the good;
Trust that creation forever will grow,
trust that God's goodness to us overflows.
5 Pray for the atmosphere, pray for the sea,
learn from the river, the rock, and the tree;
Work till shalom in full harmony rings.
Trust the connection of all living things.
