Prayer on a Summer Day

Loving God, For flowers arrayed in splendor And the sound of morning birdsong, I give You thanks and praise.
 

May the blessings of this summer day Be reminders that You care for me Even more than sparrows or fields.

For treasured hours of daylight And welcome respite in the shade, I give you thanks and praise.

May the blessings of this summer day Be reminders of Your grace outpoured To follow in the light of the Lord.

For the setting of the sun And the sky in glorious hues, I give You thanks and praise.

May the blessings of this summer day Be reminders that belief in You Should color everything I do.

Amen.
