Evening Gratitude Song

(To the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star)

Universe Verse

Universe, universe far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

Light, love, and life divine

Cosmic energy that is sublime

Universe, universe far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

 

Earth Verse

Earth, earth far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

Giving water, food, shelter – you are home

Great mother of life, no one can own

Earth, earth far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

 

Family Verse

Family, family far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

Together we love, laugh, learn and grow

We care for each other with the best we know

Family, family far and near

Enfolding all we hold so dear

 

Self Verse

Tonight we are resting here

Giving thanks for all we hold so dear

For life, family, and the world we love

We can dream as big as the sky above

Tonight we are resting here

Giving thanks for all we hold so dear

 

Others Verse

To those in need far and near

We are holding you so dear

We pray for your healing of body and heart

And that of divine love you will feel a part

To those in need far and near

We are holding you so dear
