Call to Prayer

Call to Prayer

I call to the hills and mountains
To the towns and to the cities
to the old and the young ones,
to the richest and the poorest.

I call to those by the river,
to those who live by the sea,
to those of every nation,
from all corners of our Earth.

I call to those in the forests,
to the ones who live out on the plains
I call you all to join as one
I call you all to prayer.

To those who have a god or gods,
I call to you to pray;
to those who do not pray, I ask
for action and reflection.

I call for all to join as one,
whatever you may believe.
I call to you to change this world,
to leave it better than we found it.

I call for en masse healing,
to heal both heart and mind.
If we can heal the earth around us,
so too are our hearts and bodies cleansed.

Clean the rivers and plant more trees,
learn to live in harmony,
Live with the land that nurtures us,
pray to make the change.

Don't bite the hand that feeds us,
Take care of what we have
Use wisely what is given to us,
Pray to make the change.

Let us join hands and rejoice in the earth,
let it fill us with its love and warmth
Let it cleanse us as we cleanse it
Pray to make the change.

I pray for healing of the body;
to mend broken bones and broken hearts;
to ward off illness and strife
to bring the flesh back to health.

I pray for healing of the mind;
to eliminate pain and end needless suffering
to restore peace and calm in the psyche
to bring a soul from the darkness to the light.

So I pray for healing of the earth;
Light a candle to brighten the way.
Stand on a hilltop and call to the winds
Cause a clamour and cause a stir
Rouse the people to take a stand
Pray to heal our home
Pray to make the change.
