I sensed My Creator's Joy tonight;
His laughter caressed
My happy mind:
A miracle He worked for me!
One second became All of Time!

I saw ten billion Stars tonight.
Dew drops glowing in the Trees:
Lighted by the Silver Moon;
An entire Universe of leaves.

I knew then that this World we own,
Though small and blue and lost in Space.
When lighted by the Love of God,
Becomes a joyous Laughing-Place!
This can be sung to the tune of Danny Boy.



Oh Jesus Christ we love the
Universe you’ve made!
The Stars, the Worlds,
The Deer that tramps the Glade!
The soaring Birds,
The misty Mountain majesties!
We thank you, Jesus Christ
For every Soul you’ve saved!

Jesus Christ you are the
Spirit of the Wind!
The Verdant Green
That clothes our Biosphere!
The Dancing Clouds,
The laughing, bubbling,
Mountain Stream!
We sense these things
And know that
Jesus Christ is near!

Jesus Christ you own the
Future and the Past!
In your arms you hold each
Tiny Living World!
You keep them safe, and
Whisper gently, “I love you!”
You guard your Nests
Just as a loving Mother Bird!
This can be sung to the tune of Danny Boy
Pray or sing this to receive
Inward Peace.

Jesus Christ we thank
You for Your Sacrifice
Come live inside my
Busy, restless Mind.
Forgive my sins and
Fix the flaws that sadden You.
Help me forgive the ones
Who did not treat me kind!
My God! The God of Natural Law,
Of the Dino's breath and the first Biped
He who first spied outer space,
Saw the first Dark hole,  
Felt the first great dread!
My God! He danced with Darwin's soul
And carved the staff of DNA.
 
My God trod first where now we tread
And to His worlds He learned to pray.
 
With the Universe He danced,
In such deep pain of Artist's Soul
Exhausted!  
Shed He Poet's tears
From six days' agonizing toil!
 
Finite Being! He gave us all:
His total being! His final pain!
He made the Sacrifice
 ALL Deep Ones make. Ones make.
He dared to care; To go insane!
 
For His Masterpiece He drained,
Every drop of His dark rich blood
Crucified by Creation's NEED for
That Which Shall Evolve From Love!
HE
MADE THEM 
High to touch the Sky
And stretch the souls of puny Man!
Mountains! Mountains! Multitudes of matter!
Shimmering and soaring Up to ten thousand skies!
Eagle proud and hardy. Majestic and mighty!
Building blocks and playthings for the Lord most High!
The golden mountains of the Moon! The scarlet mounts of Mars!
Ten zillion soaring alpine peaks around a zillion stars!
Dressed in snow and thunder, wild flowers and wonder.
Heaven fire and lightning fire and rainbows  and wind!
