Looking at the stars

in just our galaxy,

We marvel at it all

As mystery.

Nature’s teeming life

and endless energy,

We wonder at it all

As mystery.

Body, mind and soul

combined so thoroughly

In every human life

Is mystery.

Life, an awesome gift,

and death, a tragedy,

We recognise them both

As mystery.

When we speak of God

and of eternity

We understand it all

As mystery.

Everything in God

and God in you and me –

We celebrate this faith

As mystery.
