Prayers for the Natural Order: For the Harvest of Lands and Waters

O gracious Father, who opens your hand and fills all things living with plenteousness: Bless the lands and waters, and multiply the harvests of the world; let your Spirit go forth, that it may renew the face of the earth; show your loving-kindness, that our land may give her increase; and save us from selfish use of what you give, that people everywhere may give you thanks; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Book of Common Prayer, p. 828
