In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth
(Genesis 1:1; NLT).
Father,
1. May I walk with care,
For all the earth is sacred.
2. May I walk with tears of joy,
For I am heaven-bound.
3. May I walk with deep respect,
For you, Lord, live in all you make.
4. May I walk with humble love,
For I’m on holy ground.
