Morning Collect for the Harvest of Lands and Waters

O gracious Father, your open your hand and fill 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 men and

women everywhere may give you thanks; through Christ 

our Lord. Amen.
