In the beginning was the Word, it was a word from Him
Rewind the world spinning He said let the world spin
But first there was darkness, abyss, void and night
The first thing that He said was
Let there be light
Light flooded the night like a match at its strike
Now despite of the night the light, it wouldn't back down
Back now to how the world was made
Where were we? Oh yes, the second day
He formed the Earth with His own two hands
Mountains and valleys at His very command
Demanding a home to appear
A glorious place where His own could draw near
The Son said
Father we're still not finished
Let Us make man in Our own image
Then out of dust man took his first breath
Then He raised us and gave us a choice, life or death
But when the choice was given
Darkness allured me with attraction
I walked straight into a prison
The door was locked at my distraction
I looked away, fell
And mercy responded with the promise of grace
I'll bring you back to Myself
When the Advocate takes your place
This is my beloved Son
He'll conquer your keeper with surrender
Like a lover desperate for his love
He'll fight to free her and defend her, yeah
I see you were compelled
Now yell loud with desperation
He'll take your place in the cell
The hell of separation
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word was with God
And the Word was sent
To save a sinning running friend He'd lost
To heal the broken-hearted
And to make things right
To the darkness dawns a light
This isn't just a story of man coming to the light
And then putting their life in God's hand
No!
This is His story of a truth and a life
And the way that God came to man
He'd be giving up His glory, giving up up His throne
Doing what He's never done before
So that He could write me a story
And then give me a home
And then show me that there's so much more
I am His beloved Son
I'll conquer your keeper with surrender
Like a lover desperate for his love
I'll fight to free her, and defend her yeah
I see you were compelled
Now yell loud with desperation
I'll take your place in the cell
The hell of separation
The walls between us they are floor bound
That's what He's got in store now
But for now our image has been torn down
So we have to wait
For the Advocate
To take our place
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word made the world
But in the beginning of our story
It starts with a girl
