Ashanti (Ghana) - Prayer for Blessing O Lord, O God,creator Of Our land, our earth, the trees, the animals and humans, all is for your honor The drums beat it out, and people sing about it, and they dance with noisy joy that you are the Lord. You also have pulled the other continents out of the sea. What a wonderful world you have made out of the wet mud, and what beautiful men and women! We thank you for the beauty of this earth. The grace of your creation is like a cool day between rainy seasons. We drink in your creation with our eyes. We listen to the birds' jubilee with our ears. How strong and good and sure your earth smells, and everything that grows there. The sky above us is like a warm, soft Kente cloth, because you are behind it, else it would be cold and rough and uncomfortable. We drink in your creation and cannot get enough of it. But in doing this we forget the evil we have done. Lord, we call you, we beg you: tear us away from our sins and our death. This wonderful world fades away. And one day our eyes snap shut, and all is over and dead that is not from you. We are still slaves of the demons and the fetishes of this earth. When we are not saved by you. Bless us.
