O Life That Maketh All Things New
Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819-1892 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #12 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder The Celebration of Life Lyrics: 1 O Life that maketh all things new,
the blooming earth, our thoughts within,
our pilgrim feet, wet with thy dew,
in gladness hither turn again.
2 From hand to hand the greeting flows,
from eye to eye the signals run,
from heart to heart the bright hope glows,
the seekers of the light are one:
3 One in the freedom of the truth,
one in the joy of paths untrod,
one in the soul’s perennial youth,
one in the larger thought of God;
4 The freer step, the fuller breath,
the wide horizon’s grander view,
the sense of life that knows no death,
the Life that maketh all things new. Languages: English Tune Title: TRURO

Songs of Spirit
Author: Marion Franklin Ham, 1868-1956 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #13 (1993) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder The Celebration of Life First Line: Songs of spirit, like a prayer Lyrics: 1 Songs of spirit, like a prayer
breathing in the ambient air;
singing in the morning light,
in the radiance of the day,
in the twilight shadows gray,
in the brooding hush of night;
dark or light, or storm, or fair —
singing, singing everywhere.
2 In the burgeoning of spring,
in the summer’s scented bloom,
in the autumn’s mellow glow,
in the winter’s ice and snow;
shade, or shine, or joy, or gloom,
as the seasons come and go,
break and bare, or blossoming —
still the songs that sing and sing!
3 Singing, singing everywhere,
at the heart of everything,
in my soul I hear them sing;
mystic music of the spheres;
songs that, with my utmost art,
I can only catch in part;
broken echoes, cold and bare,
of the songs my spirit hears. Languages: English Tune Title: SERVETUS

we were made for joy and woe;
and when this we rightly know,
safely through the world we go. Languages: English Tune Title: THE CALL

like the first morning,
blackbird has spoken
like the first bird.
Praise for the singing!
Praise for the morning!
Praise for them, springing
fresh from the Word!
2 Sweet the rain’s new fall
sunlit from heaven,
like the first dewfall
on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness
of the wet garden,
sprung in completeness
where God’s feet pass.
3 Mine is the sunlight!
Mine is the morning
born of the one light
Eden saw play!
Praise with elation,
praise every morning,
God’s recreation
of the new day! Languages: English Tune Title: BUNESSAN
