God of no time, O Timeless One,
open wide our hearts to perceive
each minute as a new millennium,
a point of time that begins
a calendar of new birth beginnings
and dates the death endings of the old.
Awaken us, O God, to how each day
is the dawn of a new millennium
for some plant, creature, planet or star
in your ever-expanding universe,
billions of years old yet ever-youthening,
whose cosmic calendar began time.
O Divine One, you who are before time, may we
who live on this planet of countless calendars
creatively celebrate a new millennium of our calendar
and so learn how to welcome with joyful wonder
each new millennium moment of Life.
