Prayer to Creator
SLIDE 22
Oh Great Spirit… Whose voice I hear in the winds, whose breath fires life to the world, Hear me… I am small and weak. I need your strength and wisdom. May I walk in beauty. Make my eyes behold the red and purple sunset.
SLIDE 23
Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may know the things you have taught your children, The lessons you have written in every leaf and rock.
SLIDE 24
Make me strong, not to be superior to my brothers & sisters, but to fight my greatest enemy - myself. Make me ready to come to you with straight eyes so that when life fades as the fading sunset My spirit may come to you without shame.

We return thanks to our Mother, the earth which sustains us... To the wind, which moves the air that banishes disease… To our grandfather Creator who has protected his grandchildren and has given to us his rain… to the sun that has looked upon the earth with a beneficent eye.
