| God of creation
|
| There at the start, before the beginning of time
|
| With no point of reference
|
| You spoke to the dark and fleshed out the wonder of light
|
| And as You speak
|
| A hundred different galaxies are born
|
| In the vapor of Your breath the planets form
|
| If the stars were made to worship, so will I
|
| I can see Your heart in everything You’ve made
|
| Every burning star, a signal fire of grace
|
| If creation sings Your praises, so will I
|
| God of Your promise
|
| You don’t speak in vain, no syllable empty or void
|
| For once You have spoken
|
| All nature and science, follow the sound of Your voice
|
| And as You speak
|
| A hundred billion creatures catch Your breath
|
| Evolving in pursuit of what You said
|
| If it all reveals Your nature, so will I
|
| I can see Your heart in everything You say
|
| Every painted sky, a canvas of Your grace
|
| If creation still obeys You, so will I
|
| If the stars were made to worship, so will I
|
| If the mountains bow in reverence, so will I
|
| If the oceans roar Your greatness, so will I
|
| For if everything exists to lift You high, so will I
|
| And if the wind goes where You send it, so will I
|
| If the rocks cry out in silence, so will I
|
| If the sum of all our praises still falls shy
|
| Then we’ll sing again a hundred billion times!
|
| God of salvation
|
| You chased down my heart through all of my failure and pride
|
| On a hill You created
|
| The light of the world abandoned in darkness to die
|
| And as You speak
|
| A hundred billion failures disappear
|
| Where You lost Your life so I could find it here
|
| If You left the grave behind You, so will I
|
| I can see Your heart in everything You’ve done
|
| Every part designed in a work of art called love
|
| If You gladly chose surrender, so will I
|
| I can see Your heart, a billion different ways
|
| Every precious one, a child You died to save
|
| If You gave Your life to love them, so will I
|
| What measure could amount to Your desire
|
| You’re the One who never leaves the one behind |
