The Mystery of Your Gift - Josh Groban, The American Boychoir, Brian Byrne

A single note passes out of the ashes

A flickering ember begins

It’s the courage to turn when the pages have burned

And your story now seems at an end

Seasons stay and seasons go

Sending your memories adrift

It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

That’s the mystery of your gift

And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls

And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall

It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

That’s the mystery of your gift

There’s a voice in the shadow calling for more

There’s a rhythm that beats from within

Lending your voice to the warmth of the song

There’s a strength in the choir of one

Pure as the voice that sees the place where the weight of your past may now lift

It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

That’s the mystery of your gift

And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls

And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly you must fall

So sing higher &higher, a thousand new voices ring through

If you sing out of the fire, the courage you need comes from you

And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls

And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall

It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

That’s the mystery of your gift

It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown

That’s the mystery of your gift
