I Walk the Unfrequented Road

Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer, 1840-1929 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Autumn Lyrics: 1 I walk the unfrequented road with open eye and ear; I watch afield the farmer load the bounty of the year. 2 I filch the fruit of no one’s toil — no trespasser am I — and yet I reap from every soil and from the boundless sky. 3 I gather where I did not sow, and bend the mystic sheaf, the amber air, the river’s flow, the rustle of the leaf. 4 A beauty springtime never knew haunts all the quiet ways, and sweeter shines the landscape through its veil of autumn haze. 5 I face the hills, the streams, the wood, and feel with all akin; my heart expands; their fortitude and peace and joy flow in.

Songs of Spirit

Author: Marion Franklin Ham, 1868-1956 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal 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.
