Welcome to the Mystery

I live by the words of a man far wiser than I
He said there's only two ways to live
The first is as though nothing is a miracle
The second is like everything is
So I measure my miracles by the breath in my lungs
In the face of my child
And by the curve of the setting sun
When I'm feeling unimpressed and nothing seems special
His words remind of the miracle of the inconsequential
And they say

Welcome to the mystery child
Welcome to the mystery of life

I've stopped needing all the answers
I've stopped asking for proof of something greater than myself
Because now I realise it was here all the time
Obscured by my intellect and my arrogance
But it pays my foolishness no mind
And it embraces me just the same
It welcomes me in with a knowing grin
And it calls me by, it calls me by, it calls me by my name
And it says

Welcome to the mystery child
Welcome to the mystery of life
Welcome to the mystery child
Welcome to the mystery of life

Nothing is required
There's nothing for you to prove
Just live your miracle from moment to moment
That's all you really have to do

Welcome to the mystery child
Welcome to the mystery of life
Welcome, welcome child
Welcome to the mystery of life
Welcome to the mystery of life
Welcome to the mystery of life
Welcome, welcome
Welcome to the mystery
