Hymn: Melting Frozen Jewels

God's bountiful creation, our hearts with wonder fill, held now in contemplation with mind and body still. Diversity of creatures, varieties of plants for our delight displayed here that we may be entranced. Among the host of creatures just who am I but one? Yet you and I together the world have overrun. We've stained its glorious beauty, good habitats are lost, exploited or polluted at devastating cost. Our planet's overheating through burning fossil fuels; all round the seas are rising from melting frozen jewels. Where will the plants and creatures find refuge to survive? Without their diverse presence have we the will to thrive? It's not too late God shows us, and science also tells, to change our ways of living pollutants to dispel. Jesus, in mercy lead us consumers of excess from fouling our surroundings to making do with less. Earth, air and seas defiled, God calls us to restore for future generations to wonder at once more. Diversity of creatures, varieties of plants for their delight renewed there that they may be entranced. Tune 7676 D: Ewing, Hatherop Castle, Aurelia, Crüger etc.
