Loving God, Creator of all,
we thank you for the beauty of Creation;
show us, we pray, how to respect the fragile balance of life.
Guide by your wisdom those who have power
to care for or to destroy the environment,
that by the decisions we make, life may be cherished
and a good and fruitful earth be preserved
for future generations; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
