Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see.
There’s a song in every silence,
Seeking word and melody;
There’s a dawn in every darkness,
Bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
What it holds, a mystery,
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see
In our end is our beginning,
In our time infinity;
In our doubt there is believing.
In our life, eternity,
In our death a resurrection,
At the last, a victory
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see.
A hymn I thought you might find appropriate, I don't know if you sing this one in the Lutheran church, but we do!
