about

This recording is a guide demo that I will build on when I record my next album. Hopefully this will be the first track on an album called On to the City of God

lyrics

You said let there be light and light we would see
For when you spoke things came to be
Over the waters, you were hovering
Bringing form to the formless things

You made the heavens, the sun, moon and stars
Then you gathered the waters, made the firm ground hard
And you made the trees of the field, and you made the plants of the ground
And where you walk life’s all around

Every bird in flight, every little creeping thing
And all the fishes and mammals that swim in the sea
You hovered over them all, telling the form they would bring
For word of God is a powerful thing

You said let us make man, in our image now
We’ll make his body with the dust of the ground
And we’ll breathe our life in him, he’ll be a Spirit too
He’ll have dominion and the earth subdue
So you showed him all your works, the creatures all around
But none who loved as he loved, and no helper was found
So you laid the man in the dust and you took a rib from his side
And in your mercy you gave him a bride

He saw the woman, he said I think I’m gonna call her Eve
He thought her beauty unmatched in everything he’d seen
And they worked the garden you planted
And you walked beside them they say
In the grass in the cool of the day

They were your people, you were their God
That’s how it’s meant to be
The Love of God is a powerful thing
The Love of God is a beautiful thing
