Author: Daniel Charles Damon Hymnal: More Voices #44 (2007) Meter: 5.6.10 D Lyrics: 1 Shadow and substance,
wonder and mystery,
spellbinding spinner of atoms and earth;
soul of the cosmos,
person and energy,
source of our being, we sing of your worth.
2 We are your image,
formed in community;
sisters and brothers of Adam and Eve.
You gave us colour,
custom and history;
teach us to honour what others receive.
3 Naming the nameless
Spirit of unity,
scanning the heavens for signs of your care;
God of the ages,
give us humility;
guide us to mystical union in prayer. Topics: Praise; Darkness; Mystery Scripture: Genesis 1:6-27 Languages: English Tune Title: TWILIGHT
