"Genesis (God Of Beginnings)" lyrics

In the silence You were speaking
Light broke out and darkness fled
All creation bowed in wonder
When Your living Word was said

God of beginnings, faithful through ages
Author of mercy, writing our pages
From dust to promise, Your covenant stands
Genesis sings of the strength of Your hands

You formed man with breath of heaven
And called Abraham Your friend
What You promise You establish
You're the God of every end

From Eden's fall to heaven's plan
Your mercy sought the heart of man
The promised Seed in every line
A whisper of the coming Messiah

God of beginnings, faithful through ages
Author of mercy, writing our pages
From dust to promise, Your covenant stands
Genesis sings of the strength of Your hands

You turned famine into favor
Brought Jacob's sons into a land
Through Joseph You preserved the promise
What man meant for harm, You shaped by Your hand

God of beginnings, faithful through ages
Author of mercy, writing our pages
From dust to promise, Your covenant stands
Genesis sings of the strength of Your hands

God of beginnings, faithful through ages
Author of mercy, writing our pages
From dust to promise, Your covenant stands
Genesis sings of the strength of Your hands
