lyrics
In the beginning...
The earth was formless, amorphous, and void.
God in Spirit hovered over the waters.
Segregate - the night from the day, He says, "and let there be light!" [1]
Take me back, take me back.
To when You created me, show me how to be free.
God has hidden His heart in His creation,
From Genesis to Revelation.
God has hidden His heart in the beginning and the end.
Creation to destruction.
Cycle, vicious cycle.
We bloom, we grow.
We bleed, we die.
Agh
Cycle, endless cycle.
Change and renew me.
Grow and reduce me.
Less of me, and more of You.
Take my life and make me new.
Saturate my bones until I bloom.
I'll float with the trees,
In the breeze, In the breeze.
You whisper in the wind.
You whisper in the wind. [2a]
I'll swim with the fish,
In the seas, in the seas.
You save me from the waves,
You save me from the waves. / as they crash over me. [2b]
Enormous and amorphous, expand the extent of the universe.
Intend to extend the face of the earth.
Send the Son, sin undone, to give us second birth.
New worth spans the planet's girth, our hearts are changed in the hearth.
"I will crush the serpent's head,
And he will strike my heel." [3]
Understand the gravity of this coexistence that makes life real.
In the beginning . . .
I'll float with the trees,
In the breeze, In the breeze.
You whisper in the wind.
You whisper in the wind. [2a]
I'll swim with the fish,
In the seas, in the seas.
You save me from the waves,
You save me from the waves. / as they crash over me. [2b]
You are not a sinking ship.
Though the wind is strong, and the waves are high, you are not a sinking ship.
You are not a sinking ship. [2c]
In the beginning, we were perfect creations.
In the beginning, we were without fault. [4][5]
In the beginning, we were the crown of His creation. [6]
In the beginning.
