God, Who Touchest Earth With Beauty

Mary S. Edgar (1925) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 33:6-22

Verse 1

God who touches earth with beauty, make my heart anew. With your Spirit recreate me pure and strong and true.

Verse 2

Like your springs and running water, make me crystal pure. Like your rocks of tow’ring grandeur, make me strong and sure.

Verse 3

Like your dancing waves in sunlight, make me glad and free. Like the straightness of the pine trees, let me upright be.

Verse 4

Like the arching of the heavens, lift my thoughts above. Turn my dreams to noble action, ministries of love.

Verse 5

God who touches earth with beauty, make my heart anew. Keep me ever, by your Spirit, pure and strong and true.
