Prayer for Heaven on Earth
by Dr. Diane M. Rousseau

My Lord,
Grant the lives of all life be fulfilled
Grant the simple joys of childhood be not spent in hunger or fear
For in Thy Creation there is abundance for all
Grant our days be spent in learning of You and all Thy Creation

In the fields of flowers
In the warm sweet breezes
In the sounds of the trees
In the bubbling of brooks and streams
And in the blue bountiful oceans and peaceful lakes
For all life is Sacred

You Dwell
In the sun as warmth, Love and Light
In the moon as hope in the darkness
In the smiles of adults, family and friends
In the Soul of all Beings
And in all Faiths

The soft heart behind a loving act
In selfless service, is seen and felt by You
In the sleep of sweet dreams, the heart understands and rests
In knowing all that is good, is from You
And Your Divine Guidance is ours for the asking

Bless us, for we are the Instruments
of Your Love, Wisdom and Spirit in action
Your Grace is all around for Right use
As we in Silence and Wisdom create a better now
For all life

Let us live in Truth
That others know You by our words and actions
Patience and kindness our duty to all life
Selfless Love, our gift to all as we live Thy Will
and be Blessed in Thy sight and for Thy Glory
To create Heaven on Earth and Peace for All
