Great Spirit, whose voice is heard in the stillness, whose breath gives life to all, we come before you as children needing the help of your strength and wisdom. Give us to walk in beauty, seeing the uncommon in the common, aware of the great stream of wonder in which we and all things move. Give us to see more deeply into the great things of our heritage, and the simple yet sublime truths hidden in every leaf and every rock. May our hands treat with respect the things you have created. May we walk with our fellow creatures as sharing with them the one life that flows from you.
