Today's Earth Prayer

The heavens bespeak the glory of God


The firmament ablaze, a text of his works.


Dawn whispers to sunset


Dark to dark the word passes; glory, glory.


 


All in a great silence,


no tongues clamor


yet the web of the world trembles


conscious, as of great winds passing.


 


The bridegrooms tent is raised,


a cry goes up: He comes! a radiant sun


rejoicing, presiding his wedding day.


From end to end of the universe hi progress.


No creature, no least being but catches fire from him.


 


    Daniel Berrigan
