with thanks

with thanks to God:

for the beauty and fruitfulness of the earth,
     and the mystery and wonder of all creation

for the love of family and friends,
     and the blessings of a community of faith and worship

for health and strength,
     and the courage to bear ill health and weakness

for the gift of work,
     and for the opportunities of creative leisure
