opening words

O Earth, you are surpassing fair.
From out your store we're daily fed,
We breathe your life-supporting air
and drink the water that you shed. . . .

Has evolution been in vain
that life should perish ere its prime?
Or will we from our greed refrain
and save our planet while there's time?

THE REV. JOHN ANDREW STOREY (1935-1998)

A British Unitarian minister who authored thirty-two hymns for the 1985 British Unitarian collection Hymns for Living. Fourteen of them appear in the Unitarian Universalist Association hymnal, Singing the Living Tradition; these lines are from Hymn 174.
