Ninth prayer: Creation

“Most High, all-powerful, all-good Lord,

all praise is yours,

all glory, honour and blessings.
To you alone, Most High, do they belong.”

(St Francis of Assisi)

“Let us sing as we go.

May our struggles and our concern for this planet

never take away the joy of our hope.”

(Pope Francis, Laudato Si’)

Creator God we praise your world

and look with awe on all that is.

May we commit to heal the earth

and share your gifts in faith and trust.

Brother Francis, in purity of heart

you gazed upon the world with love.

We ask you joyfully to intercede for us,

As guardians of our common home.

St Francis, pray for us.
