The planet is fashioned by God’s expert hands
Creating the depths and peaks across the land
He uses wisdom to create the seas
Refreshing the dry land that we see
Earth Day arrives as an annual event
Witnessing our actions that implement
We are asked to be loyal guardians of this earth
Preserving it always, adds to its value and worth
Loss of natural treasures causes intense sadness
Being good stewards, brings God much gladness
Farmers operate to be effective caretakers of the land
Asking the rest of us to walk with them, hand in hand
We are called by our Lord to be fully aware
Sending out trustworthy legions, always fair
History and science often transmit gloomy news
Watching this earthly home decline in our view
Look around the planet, where we call home to be
Asking, what can be accomplished for God to see?
Perhaps our political kingpins should stop and pause
Leading a call to action for a just and worthy cause
Our planet is transforming before our vigilant eyes
Envisioning climate change and more as time flies
Our earthly sanctuary furnishes a home for all
Protecting our environment, too precious to fall

Earth Day is a yearly event on April 22. Many view “Earth Day” as an every day activity to preserve our planet for future generations. These verses from Psalm 95:3-5 bring to mind God’s wondrous creation, which deserves our fullest attention in being excellent stewards of what He has given us.
“For the Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods. In His hands are the depths of the earth; and the heights of the mountains are His also. The sea is His, for He made it, and the dry land, which His hands have formed.”
We are the caretakers of the earth, but unfortunately, we’ve been busy destroying it.
