I praise Thee for Thy mystery

lyricist: Witness Lee
Composer: Ralph Harrison

I praise Thee for Thy mystery

That I may truly contact Thee;

In unapproachable light Thou wast

But now as Spirit nigh to me.

The Father

Son

and Spirit

Thou

The triune God

my life fore’er;

In me Thou art the full supply

That I Thy holy nature share.

The triune God the Spirit is

And comes as breath and wind to me;

’Tis thus I may experience

The Godhead’s wondrous mystery.

All that the Father is and has

In His beloved Son doth rest

And all the riches of the Son

Are by the Spirit now possessed.

The Spirit doth descend on me

And to my spirit enters in

That He

the Father in the Son

My blessed portion be within.

The Father is the fountainhead

The Son expression gives to Him;

The Spirit is His very flow

As my reality within.

The Father in the Son has come

That God to man Himself may show;

The Son as Spirit enters me

That God I inwardly may know.

The Father purposed that the Son

Should be the first in everything;

The Son the Father takes as Head

And over all His headship brings.

The Spirit perfectly desires

That Christ

the Son

be glorified

And He reveals Him unto me

That He be fully testified.

Thy final form the Spirit is

Our worship to receive within;

If I Thy riches would enjoy

In spirit I must contact Him.

If I in spirit worship Thee

In spirit live

in spirit pray

The Holy Spirit I will touch

And Thee enjoy in every way.
