God Loves The World

God made the World so broad and grand,
Filled with blessings from His hand.
He made the sky so high and blue,
And all the little children, too.
Dear God, bless our nets as we cast the trawl,
The ocean is deep and our ship is small,
Keep us safe as we do you will,
And we will protect the land, your wishes to fulfil.
For this new morning and its light,
For rest and shelter through the night.
For every gift, your goodness sends,
We thank you, gracious Lord!
Bright is the morning, new is the day,
When I wake up, I will say
Bless me, God and all people of this land
Made so wonderful by your precious hand.
