Ah, Great Mystery of Life

          (Victor Herbert's "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life" is slightly modified, but the melody of the song is retained.)

      Ah, Great Mystery of Life at last I've found You,
      Ah, at last I know the secret of it all;
      All the longings, seekings, striving. waiting, yearning,
     The burning hopes, the joys and idle tears that fall.
     
      For 'tis Love and Peace, so long I have been seeking;
      Now I know Who gives His Love for all to share.
      Weep no more for He's the end and all of living;
       Yes, only God can give us Peace fore'er.

      So, dear brothers, sisters, if you are still seeking,
      Find the Lord in everyone and everywhere;
      Know the secret-- He's the end and all of living,
      For only God can give us Life fore'er!
      .
