Transcript

We call upon the earth,

Our planet home,

With its beautiful depths and soaring heights,

Its vitality and abundance of life,

And together we ask that it teach us and show us the way.

We call upon the mountains,

The Cascades and Olympics,

The high green valleys and meadows filled with wild flowers,

The snows that never melt,

The summits of intense silence,

And we ask that they teach us and show us the way.

We call upon the waters that rim the earth,

Horizon to horizon,

That flow in our rivers and streams and fall upon our gardens and fields,

And we ask that they teach us and show us the way.

We call upon the land which grows our food,

The nurturing soil,

The fertile fields,

The abundant gardens and orchards,

And we ask that they teach us and show us the way.

We call upon the forests,

The great trees,

Reaching strongly to the sky with the earth in their roots and the heavens in their branches,

The fir,

The pine,

And the cedar,

And we ask them to teach us and show us the way.

We call upon the creatures of the fields and forests and the seas,

Our brothers and sisters,

The wolves,

The deer,

The eagle,

And the dove,

The great whales and dolphins,

The beautiful orca and salmon who share our northwest home,

And we ask them to teach us and show us the way.

We call upon all those who have lived on this earth,

Our ancestors,

And our friends,

Who dreamed the best for future generations,

And upon whose lives our lives are built,

And with thanksgiving we call upon them to teach us and show us the way.

And lastly,

We call upon that that we hold most sacred,

The presence and power of the great spirit of love and truth,

Which flows through all the universe to be with us and to teach us and show us the way.
