Book of Bars (Genesis to Revelation)

In the beginning

Just a word

Then a world

Now a verse

First page

Spirit over deep space

Breath speaks

Whole galaxy in one phrase

Garden in the east

Dust turns to a heartbeat

Two hands, one tree

One choice, cracked peace

Snake talk, blame shift

Fig leaves, long drift

But a promise in the fallout

Seed gonna call out

Flood came, wood frame

Rainbow on the back end

Tower up, pride loud

Language got fractured

Then an old man, sand man

Counting every star light

“You’ll be a nation”

Promise in the dark night

From Genesis to Revelation

Every line, a heartbeat chasing

Run it through my veins, that ancient truth

Whole Book talking, pointing to You

From desert fire to empty tomb

Every story, same rescue move

From Genesis to Revelation

All these pages, one salvation

Bush burns

Name spoken from the flames

Take off your shoes

You’re standing in My name

Sea split, dry ground

Stone laws, carved sound

Prophets on the front line

Calling a lost crowd

Kings fall, tears flow

Harps on the willow trees

Exiles with the hope

Of a kingdom they ain’t never seen

Then a baby in the back shed

Heaven in a rough bed

Bread for the broke ones

Water for the dry dread

Blind eyes, mud on ’em

Grave clothes undone

Cross raised, sky shook

Dark at the noon sun

Stone rolled, grave cold

Jesus in the fresh light

Scarred hands, new life

Hope for the late nights

From Genesis to Revelation

Every line, a heartbeat chasing

Run it through my veins, that ancient truth

Whole Book talking, pointing to You

From desert fire to empty tomb

Every story, same rescue move

From Genesis to Revelation

All these pages, one salvation

Law spoke

Love walked

Ink wrote

Blood bought

Old Word

New breath

One cross

Beat death (oh yeah)

Letters to the churches

Fire in the margins

Last page, last promise

Lion over darkness

From Genesis to Revelation

Every line, a heartbeat chasing

Run it through my veins, that ancient truth

Whole Book talking, pointing to You

From desert fire to empty tomb

Every story, same rescue move

From Genesis to Revelation

All these pages, one salvation
