You’re the Word of God the Father
from before the world began;
Ev’ry star and ev’ry planet
has been fashioned by Your hand.
All creation holds together
by the power of Your voice.
Let the skies declare Your glory;
let the land and seas rejoice.
Chorus:
You’re the Author of creation,
You’re the Lord of ev’ry man,
and Your cry of love rings out
across the lands.
Verse:
Yet you left the gaze of angels,
came to seek and save the lost
and exchanged the joy of heaven
for the anguish of a cross.
With a pray’r You fed the hungry,
with a word You calmed the sea;
Yet how silently You suffered,
that the guilty may go free.
Chorus
Verse:
With a shout You rose victorious,
wresting vict’ry from the grave
and ascended into heaven,
leading captives in Your way.
Now You stand before the Father,
interceding for Your own;
From each tribe and tongue and nation
You are leading sinners home.
Chorus
