Living as we used to live won't be enough from now on Giving as we used to give won't be enough from now on
(Immortal, invisible, God only wise In light inaccessible hid from our eyes Most blessed, most glorious The Ancient of Days Almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise)
Thinking as we used to think won't be enough from now on (To all life thou givest, to both great and small) Knowing as we thought we knew won't be enough from now on (In all life thou livest, the true life of all) Are we chosen, are we guarded on this journey through the dark? (We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree) There is no-one really knows – the old order is past (And wither and perish: but naught changeth thee)
Seeing as we used to see won't be enough from now on (Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light) Loving as we used to love won't be enough from now on (Nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might) Miracles and revelations we must learn to do without (Thy justice like mountains high soaring above) There's a journey in your soul – all the rest is but a dream (Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love)
Praying as used to pray won't be enough from now on (Great Father of glory, pure Father of light) Faith that guided us before won't be enough from now on (Thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight) Find another way, find another way, from within, and not without (All laud we would render, O help us to see) In the loneliness of space gather strength from yourselves ('Tis only the splendour of light hideth thee)
