As every living thing
bends toward the light,
we turn to you,
sending forth our praise
as you open the gates of heaven,
renewing your work of creation
with faithfulness and love.

Nothing is untouched by your presence:
from the luminaries on high
to the sand beneath our feet –
no boundary can contain your radiance,
no border can hold back your light;
it shines upon all who dwell on earth.

So let a new light shine upon us –
may it illuminate every corner of creation,
that we all may bask in the warmth of its glow.

Blessed are you, forever recreating our world
with such exquisite radiance.
