Where are the voices for the earth?
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #244 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Where are the voices for the earth?
Where are the eyes to see her pain,
wasted by our consuming path,
weeping the tears of poisoned rain?
2 Sacred the soil that hugs the seed,
sacred the silent fall of snow,
sacred the world that God decreed,
water and sun and river flow.
3 Where shall we run who break this code,
where shall tomorrow's children be,
left with the ruined gifts of God,
death for the creatures, land, and sea?
4 We are the voices for the earth,
we who will care enough to cry,
cherish her beauty, clear her breath,
live that our planet may not die. Topics: Our Response to God in the stewardship of the earth; Care of Creation; Children; Penitence Scripture: Genesis 2:8 Languages: English Tune Title: PORTENT
