A vision of beauty
Through nature’s display
Let us rejoice in
Your creation this day
Souls of encounter
Blessed in our way
Let us love them as
Your creation this day
A self-made man
The world does say
Let me not be my
Own creation this day
Our source of new life
Through Spirit we pray
Let us be born as your
Creation this day
Claiming our calling
In His arms to stay
Oh Lord, let me be
Your creation this day

Thank you Sandra, your post inspired some more thoughts…
Autumn Colors — Into the Light Adventures
The soft morning light
Calls us to the day
In calling us back
Creation has a way
To the things of man
We drift away
Nature is drawing
When we go astray
Knit in our being
Our longing, convey
For beauty and peace
Of binding, someway
For as the Creator
His reflection, portray
With food for our soul
His creation, displays
Come now beloved
Through the doorway
The answer the calling
As creation, let’s pray
Into the morning
The rain plays its song
Peepers are chanting
Frogs sing along
Muscles relaxing
Drawing fresh air
One of becoming
Fully right here
Cast on horizon
The pre-day light glows
Soul of arising
A drawing to know
One of our being
In Spirits view here
Creation to offer
An entrance of prayer
Path of mountains ascension
Stirring in still waters deep
Prayer of soul satiating
Dwelling in our Saviors keep
Surrounded in fragrance of silence
Lifted in a lofty breeze
Solitude found is conducive
A falling in a prayer of ease
Soothed in a field of grass swaying
Colors in soft petals sweet
The marvel of creations splendor
In way of our Lord to meet
Lost in the colors of sunrise
Drifting in horizons’ flow
Mystery found in Your Presence
Your wisdom to us You bestow
When in the orchard
I said to the tree
Speak to me of God
A blossom blessed me
I said to the sunlight
Please send hope this day
And patiently waiting
The shadows went away
I prayed with the flowers
Oh, help me to praise
We turned to the light
Their petals they raised
My brother and sister
In creation to see
Through love of the Father
All one that we be
(loosely based upon words attributed to Francis of Assisi)
The sunrise bursts in glory
A beautiful display
Let our soul reflect
Your joy throughout this day
Forms of weather, many
Sometimes is severe
As children of your hope
Let us persevere
As all rivers flow
Their gift unto the Sea
Let all our blessings flow
In love of serving thee
In dusk of descending
Sins go in Your mercy
Let us each forgive
All others and of me
A song within the stars
In darkness, way to cope
Let our being shine
To you, our one true hope
Through the gift of Spirit
Surrender of our will
Let all of creation serve
His purpose to fulfill
In whisper of morning
Pure light outpours
Spirit is shared
On all God adores
In colors of sunrise
A moving display
Stilling the soul
In drawing to pray
In wisp of soft breeze
Caressing the cheek
Those of accepting
Every soul seek
Surprise in a flutter
Of a butterfly
A flower of air
A gift passing by
Masterpiece of moments
In touches of grace
Value of capture
Within souls embrace
