BREATH OVER THE WATERS

Verse 1

Before the stars were spoken

Before the dust had a name

There was silence in the deep

And darkness over the waves

No form, no sound, no motion

Just the echo of what would be

Then the Spirit of God hovered

Over eternity

You said “Let there be light”

And the night learned how to flee

The Word took shape in wonder

And creation bent its knee

Chorus

Breath over the waters

Fire in the skies

Spirit of the Living God

You brought all things to life

From the void You formed a future

From the dust You raised a song

Every breath, every moment

Was the Spirit all along

Verse 2

You split the land from the ocean

Told the seas where they could stay

Hung the moon in its position

Taught the sun to mark the days

You painted skies with Your wisdom

Wrote Your power in the trees

Every atom bears the fingerprint

Of divine intentionality

When You formed us from the soil

And breathed life into our frame

It wasn’t just lungs that filled with air

But a spark of holy flame

Chorus

Breath over the waters

Wind that moves the unseen

Spirit of the Living God

You awaken everything

You still hover, You still speak

You still bring dead things to life

Same Spirit from creation

Now alive in me tonight

Bridge (worshipful / building)

You hovered in the beginning

You descended like a dove

You filled the room at Pentecost

With power from above

You raised dry bones in the valley

You raised Christ from the grave

Same Spirit that formed the heavens

Still moves the same

Verse 3

Not just ancient history

Not just words upon a page

You still move in holy rhythm

Still creating every day

You convict, You comfort

You illuminate truth

You don’t just make new worlds

You make us new

When chaos tries to name me

When darkness calls me void

You speak again, “Let there be light”

And fear loses its voice

Final Chorus

Breath over the waters

Fire in my soul

Spirit of the Living God

You make broken things whole

From creation to redemption

From the grave to life restored

Every breath I’m breathing

Testifies: You are the LORD

Outro

You hovered.

You spoke.

You breathed.

And still—

You move.
