From All the Fret and Fever of the Day
Author: Monroe Beardsley, b. 1915 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #90 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs Lyrics: 1 From all the fret and fever of the day,
let there be moments when we turn away,
and, deaf to all confusing outer din,
intently listen for the voice within.
2 In quietness and solitude we find
the soundless wisdom of the deeper mind;
with clear harmonious purpose let us then
bring richer meaning to the world again. Languages: English Tune Title: COOLINGE

Author: William Blake, 1757-1827 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #93 (1993) Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs Lyrics: 1 To Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love
all pray in their distress,
and to those virtues of delight

and Pity a human face;
and Love, the human form divine,
and Peace, the human dress,
and Peace, the human dress.
3 Then every one, of every clime,
that prays in deep distress,
prays to the human form divine —
Love, Mercy, Pity, Peace,

What Is This Life
Author: William Henry Davies, 1869-1941 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #94 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs First Line: What is this life if, full of care Lyrics: 1 What is this life if, full of care,
we have no time to stand and stare –
no time to stand beneath the boughs
and stare as long as sheep or cows;
2 No time to see, when woods we pass,
where squirrels hide their nuts in grass –
no time to see, in broad daylight,
streams full of stars, like skies at night;
3 No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
and watch her feet, how they can dance.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

I Cannot Think of Them as Dead
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer, 1840-1929 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #96 (1993) Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Transience Lyrics: 1 I cannot think of them as dead
who walk with me no more;
along the path of life I tread
they are but gone before,
they are but gone before.
2 And still their silent ministry
within my heart has place
as when on earth they walked with me
and met me face to face,
and met me face to face.
3 Their lives are made forever mine;
what they to me have been
has left henceforth its seal and sign
engraven deep within,
engraven deep within.
4 Mine are they by an ownership
nor time nor death can free;
for God has given to love to keep
its own eternally,
its own eternally. Languages: English Tune Title: DISTANT BELOVED
I Cannot Think of Them as Dead
Loveliest of Trees

is hung with bloom along the bough,
and stands about the woodland ride
wearing white for Eastertide.
2 Now of my threescore years and ten,
twenty will not come again,
and take from sev'nty springs a score,
leaving me just fifty more.
3 And since to look at things in bloom
fifty springs are little room,
about the woodlands I will go,
seeing the cherry hung with snow. Languages: English Tune Title: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS

Abide with Me
Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #101 (1993) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Transience First Line: Abide with me, fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me, fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; still with me abide.
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see:
O thou who changes not, abide with me.
3 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if thou abide with me.

The Spacious Firmament on High
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #283 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high,
with all the blue ethereal sky,
and spangled heavens, a shining frame,
their great Original proclaim.
The unwearied sun from day to day
does his Creator's power display,
and publishes to every land
the work of an almighty hand.
2 Soon as the evening shades prevail,
the moon takes up the wondrous tale,
and nightly to the listening earth
repeats the story of its birth;
whilst all the stars that round it burn,
and all the planets in their turn,
confirm the tidings, as they roll
and spread the truth from pole to pole.
3 What though in solemn silence all
move round the dark terrestrial ball?
What though no real voice nor sound
amid their radiant orbs be found?
In reason's ear they all rejoice,
and utter forth a glorious voice;
forever singing as they shine,
"The hand that made us is divine." Scripture: Psalm 19:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: CREATION
