Slowly we are turning once again
To look into the dark, star-sprinkled space
through which our planet is traveling
All life is aware of the approaching view
And the sunset beauty of this day's end
Is an overture to the awesome grandeur
Of the eternal vision that awaits us

As the earth turns outward,
May my thoughts turn inward
To the Sacred mystery that dwells in my heart.
At the end of this day
I sing a song of thanksgiving
For the wonder of life
I lift up my voice in gratitude
For all this day has held for me
As I turn my memory to its flood of gifts.

Blessed are you, Divine Mystery,
Who has chosen to dwell within me
And has enriched this day
With zestful life, beauty, love
And the discipline of my trials and temptations.

Blessed are you, O God,
Most blessed are you
