Harvest
With grateful thanks
We receive the bounty of this earth.
Giver of plenty,
You are the source of
Plants and meat,
Milk and herbs,
Clean water and safe homes.
Bless this harvest,
Its beautiful colors.
Bless this bounty,
Its nourishing substance.
Bless the livestock
And those who keep them.
Bless the farmers, the workers,
The gleaners, far and near.
Bless the hungry,
Those who have no homes,
Those displaced by drought or violence.
Give succor to the people in their need.
Bless this world and all its creatures.
All that we are,
All that we have,
Are gifts of your creation.
From my book Christ Beside Me, Christ Within Me: Celtic Blessings.
