Tree

Make like a Tree
and may your light
shine on me forever
Let my branches stretch
from the east to the west
Make me grow upward
till I reach heaven
among the clouds
Let my roots go down
deep under mountains
to underground streams
of the purest waters
and into mineral rich earth
May all the goodness
You placed in the ground
fill my veins traveling upwards
and into my leaves
Shine on me
strengthen me
uphold me
so that hurricanes, storms,
strong winds are but
as an autumn breeze
Let me rejoice among all the trees
because you have removed
them that destroy the earth
and established me
Your praise
Your joy
Your glory
Your true witness.
Let the birds come
and make their nest
high above the ground
among the clouds
and bring my fruit
forward at her seasons
give me twelve kinds
so that the people of
the earth may be blessed
and always full
and never hungry
You have planted me, O God
and your light has
cause me to grow
with your living water.
