They tell the ancient mystery of God forever more.
2 Newborn, the sun in glory rides across the heav’nly fields.
The starry host in silence bides and to the morning yields.
3 White seabirds wheel against the sky, companioned with the dawn.
God, lift our winging souls on high, share in creation’s morn.
4 Your universal waters sweep upon the endless strands.
Your love and mercy ever keep asurge in all thy lands.

They tell the ancient mystery, O God, forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: OIKOUMENE

Mysterious Presence, Source of All
Author: Seth Curtis Beach, 1837-1932 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #92 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs Lyrics: 1 Mysterious Presence, source of all —
the world without, the soul within —
thou fount of life, O hear our call,
and pour thy living waters in.
2 Thou breathest in the rushing wind,
thy spirit stirs in leaf and flower;
nor wilt thou from the willing mind
withhold thy light and love and power.
3 Thy hand unseen to accents clear
awoke the psalmist’s trembling lyre,
and touched the lips of holy seer
with flame from thine own altar fire.
4 That touch divine again impart,
still give the prophet’s burning word;
and vocal in each waiting heart
let living psalms of praise be heard. Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

night, veiled in mystery —
glorious the earth and resplendent skies!

singing our joyous song,
as through an earthly paradise.

deep are the flashing seas;
glorious each wonder the seasons bring.
Brighter is faith’s surmise,
shining in pilgrim eyes,
from which our waking spirits spring.

‘neath the eternal skies,
into the light from the shadowed past:
still shall our pilgrim song,
buoyant and brave and strong,
resound while life and mountains last. Languages: English Tune Title: SCHÖNSTER HERR JESU
