Put off your holy mantle
and come down on the dusty soil

I Thank You God

I thank You God for this most amazing day
I who have died am alive again today
For the leaping green trees and a blue dream of sky
I who have died am alive again today
For everything natural, and infinite and hey!

And breath in us a deep slumber
