ICE CRYSTALS

"AN AMERICAN GRACE"

Bless, O Lord, those who patrol
our streets and seas and skies
that we may dwell in safety.
And bless those who work our fields
and tend our flocks and herds
that we may eat when we are hungry.
And bless us, Lord, that we may come
to love and serve Thee better. Amen.
