When I look up at the heavens,
at the work of Love's creation,
at the infinite variety of your Plan;
What is woman that you rejoice in her,
And man that you do delight in him?
You have made us in your image,
You fill us with your Love;
You have made us co-creators of the earth!
guardians of the planet!
to care for all your creatures,
to tend the land, the sea, and the air we breathe;
all that You have made,
You have placed in our hands.
from Psalm 8
As translated by Nan C Merrill
Psalms for Praying
