There is Much in the World

There is much in the world for us to be grateful for

The Universe has made it all

As our song now takes up sight and sounds of the earth

All voices shall be one

For the sound of the rain

For the fierce rushing waves

For water quiet and cool

We are blessed and thankful

In each droplet we see all your love and energy

For the warmth of a fire

For a blaze through the sky

For orange and yellow sparks

We are blessed and thankful

In each flicker we see all your love and energy

For the green of the earth

For the rich, leafy trees

For air that’s fresh and clean

We are blessed and thankful

Through each breath we feel all your love and energy

~Carson Coorman, paraphrased
