GOD, WE OFFER
YOU OUR PRAISE


By Josie Whitehead 

God, We Offer You Our Praise

For the beauty of God’s earth;
Each new day He gives it birth.
     Warming sun and gentle rain:
     All we need to grow our grain.

          God we offer you our praise -
          Hearts and hands and voices raised.

Hills and valleys, woods and trees - 
Butterflies and tiny bees;
     Rivers, lakes, plants and flowers;
     Warming days and cooling showers.

          God we offer you our praise -
          Hearts and hands and voices raised.

For people in our world we pray:
Those who care for us each day;
     Those who live their lives in fear  -
      May they know your presence near.

          Father unto you we pray -
          Protect your children every day.
