Mother of All

Mother of all, in every age,

in every clime adored,

by saint, by poet, and by sage,

your praises high have soared.

​

Goddess of nurture and of love,

all nature sings your care.

In life’s extravagance you prove

the gift of giving fair.

​

O spirit of unfolding grace

and deepest mystery,

teach us compassion’s gentle face

and wisdom’s mastery.

​

Teach us to cherish this proud earth,

its fragile beauty praise,

and for the dreams your joy gives birth,

a hopeful future raise.
