Lord, hear our prayer:

Heavenly Father, we thank you for those whose labors enrich our lives and for those whose words and deeds make our lives worthwhile; for those who care for your world and for those who seek to repair the damage we have done to your good earth. Thank you for artists and writers, poets and painters, composers and musicians and for all craftsmen and women who use their skills and their talents to display the beauty of your creation. We give you thanks, praise and glory in Christ Jesus’ name.

Amen.
