It Moves in Creation
 
It moves in creation and flows through our lives,
the Spirit that joins us, the vision that thrives.
The yearning for justice, the questing for peace
reveal God's reflection when hope is increased.
 
(Refrain)
For God has many faces, far more than we can see,
and where we meet the sacred, we touch divinity.
 
 
The earth is our garden to tend and sustain;
a gift to be treasured, a sacred domain.
For we are God's children, the daughters and sons
whose work is to nurture what God has begun. (R)
 
The hungry, the desp'rate, the grieving, the lost
show God's face in suff'ring and bearing its cost
Yet we are connected, a part of the whole,
and what harms the lowest, on all takes a toll.  (R)
 
A gesture of kindness; a loving embrace;
a word of encouragement offered with grace;
our patient endurance; the comforting deed,
are quietly holy and soulfully feed. (R)
