O Keeper of the Universe,

I'm struggling down here,

Or wherever it is that I am

Because my family is hungry

And my desires grow for things that don't seem real.

So I'm just telling you, to make sure that you know

Because if you do then maybe I'll

Be ok.

I feel your hand now on my head

While you listen to me groan,

And I know.

I know you're there,

And I know you know I'm here.

O King of Everything,

Don't overlook me now.

For Your kingdom's filled with folk like me,

And we're the ones who bless you anyhow.

But only through what you give us,

Can we be so empowered

To control the universe,

To cause you to be blessed.

The wheel's in spin, and we're on board

Or we're just watching,

Wondering why we're sitting still.

O keepers of the forests,

And keepers of the seas,

And keepers of the Earth who keep it whole,

Our blessing is the thing we give

And not what we receive.

O keepers,

Keepers, hear!

Keepers, listen now as still air speaks to us.

It says what we don't know

In our own voice,

Spoke from us, through us, to our God

The Keeper of the Universe.
