Lyrics
“The Mystery of Me” (St. Augustine's Song)
©2019, Jed Brewer
Men go abroad to admire the mountains
The mighty waves of the sea
The compass of the oceans
The circuits of the stars
Yet pass over the mystery of me
You have made glad by your deeds, O Lord
I sing with joy at what your hands have made
Look how great a love God has given me
That you have made me one of your children
CHORUS
This is the day that the Lord has made
Let us rejoice and be glad
For the Father said quick, put a robe on me
Set a feast and bring the fatted calf
Cause I went abroad to admire the mountains
The mighty waves of the sea
The compass of the oceans
The circuits of the stars
Yet passed over the mystery of me
Yet passed over the mystery of me
