Across
  1. 2. At river’s end I spread out wide—new land where waters drift and slide.
  2. 5. One single god is all I see; that’s the belief that shapes me.
  3. 7. Deep underground I quietly stay; pump me up to fuel your day.
  4. 10. I pack my things and roam the land; no single home, no place I stand.
  5. 11. Far from home my people roam, scattered hearts seeking home.
  6. 12. Thick and black beneath the ground, I power cars when I am found.
  7. 13. When holy leaders guide the way, they rule the land day by day.
Down
  1. 1. Many gods in stories old—more than one is what I'm told.
  2. 3. I lead the prayer with calm and care; a guide for worship everywhere.
  3. 4. Once full of life, now dust and sun—my land turns desert, one by one.
  4. 6. We choose how much oil flows out fast; we set the price that markets cast.
  5. 8. Crown on head, I lead the land—ruling all with guiding hand.
  6. 9. In desert lands so dry and bare, I’m the watery spot that’s hiding there.
  7. 14. Across the dunes in steady line, we travel together—one long spine.
