Title: In the Beginning
[Verse 1]
In the beginning, all was formless and void,
Darkness draped the deep, no light to be enjoyed.
God’s Spirit hovered over waters still,
Spoke the word, and creation fulfilled.
"Let there be light," and the light was born,
Day from night, the first dawn adorned.
He called it good, set the heavens in place,
Divided the waters, carved out space.
[Chorus]
In the beginning, God’s voice rang true,
Created the heavens, the earth anew.
From chaos to order, His glory unfurled,
He spoke, and He made the whole wide world.
[Verse 2]
Day two came, the sky He spread wide,
Vault of heaven where the clouds reside.
Waters above, waters below,
His mighty hand shaped the world to grow.
Day three, He gathered the seas in their place,
Dry land rose, with beauty and grace.
Springs of life, the earth brought forth,
Plants and trees of every sort.
[Chorus]
In the beginning, God’s voice rang true,
Created the heavens, the earth anew.
From chaos to order, His glory unfurled,
He spoke, and He made the whole wide world.
[Verse 3]
Day four, He set the stars to shine,
Sun to rule the day, moon for nighttime.
Lights in the sky to mark the way,
Seasons and years, night and day.
Day five, the seas teemed with life,
Birds took wing in the open sky.
"Be fruitful, multiply," He gave His call,
Creatures great and small, He made them all.
[Chorus]
In the beginning, God’s voice rang true,
Created the heavens, the earth anew.
From chaos to order, His glory unfurled,
He spoke, and He made the whole wide world.
[Verse 4]
Day six, He formed the beasts of the field,
Life on the land, His power revealed.
Then in His image, mankind He made,
Male and female, in His likeness arrayed.
"Rule the earth, be stewards of care,"
He blessed them all, His love to share.
He saw His work, and it was so good,
Creation complete, as only God could.
[Chorus]
In the beginning, God’s voice rang true,
Created the heavens, the earth anew.
From chaos to order, His glory unfurled,
He spoke, and He made the whole wide world.
[Bridge]
On the seventh day, He rested in peace,
His work was done, creation complete.
Holy and blessed, that day He set apart,
A Sabbath of rest, etched in our hearts.
[Final Chorus]
In the beginning, God’s voice rang true,
Created the heavens, the earth anew.
From chaos to order, His glory unfurled,
He spoke, and He made the whole wide world.
[Outro]
In the beginning, His word was light,
Forever His glory shines through the night.
Oh, praise the Creator, His name we raise,
For all He has made, we sing His praise.
