An Earth Prayer

 

My brother the star,

My Mother the Earth,

My sister the Moon -

To my life give beauty,

To my body give strength,

To my work give goodness,

To my house give peace

To my spirit give truth

To my elders give wisdom –

We must pray for strength

We must pray to come together,

Pray to the weeping Earth,

Pray to the trembling waters

and to the wandering rain

We must pray to the whispering Moon,

Pray to the tip-toeing stars

and to the hollering Sun
