Ecology And Our Redemption

O Jesus
desire of the eternal hills
you rend the heavens
and come down to walk
with man in the garden
of the earth
to walk on the restless sea
and calm a troubled world.
all creation groans with pain
condemned to lose its purpose
because we have sinned
choosing to defy your Father's Law
in our own nature and in his world
renew now the face of the earth
restore all things in heaven
and earth to the Divine design
O Holy Carpenter of Nazareth
Christ the King of the Universe
Amen.
