Energy welcomes new day
Nurturing all living things

Embracing scene’s blessed touch
Creation’s own makeover

Gentleness coming ashore
Earmarking time’s tomorrow
Creation’s open front door
Patience streams through nature’s heart
River’s living waters flow
Quenching eternity’s thirst
Creation’s whispers aglow

Coming home at last
Trust forever fed
