In the Beginning

In the beginning, no ground, no place Just formless void and silent space Then God declared, “Let there be light!” And with His word He pierced the night He shaped the skies and spread the seas He brought to life the fields and trees He framed the stars with wise design And set their paths with voice divine

[Chorus] In the beginning God made the world In the beginning created all Out of nothing through His command By spoken power: sky, ocean and land

He fashioned birds with wings to soar And marine creatures from shore to shore Beasts filled the land by proclamation Then He made man — summit of creation! In His own image God formed man To rule the world by sovereign plan Male and female mirror His way They shine His glory day by day

[Chorus] In the beginning God made the world In the beginning created all Out of nothing through His command By spoken power: sky, ocean and land

[Bridge] God’s cosmic power galaxies made Black holes that bend light so obeyed He formed the earth and all therein Then crowned mankind to shine like Him

[Final Chorus] In the beginning God made the world In the beginning created all Out of nothing through His command By spoken power: sky, ocean and land

[Outro] In the beginning In the beginning God made the world
