A song about the creation of Man
Lyrics
Verse 1
Six days of sky and sea,
Six days of stone and light,
The creatures filled the earth,
The stars adorned the night.
But one thing yet remained,
One silence, one design —
A creature unlike all —
Bearer of the divine.
PRE-CHORUS
He knelt upon the ground,
He took the sacred clay,
All heaven held its breath
that sixth day.
CHORUS
Breathed into dust —
A living soul arose!
Image of God
The
first and last He chose!
Out of the earth,
A flame that will not die —
Formed in His glory,
Alive beneath the sky!
VERSE 2
Not born of storm or tide,
Not cast from sea or stone,
Called before the ages,
Beloved, known.
The Maker bent in love,
His hands in sacred clay —
What tenderness divine
Was shown that day.
PRE-CHORUS
He saw and called it good,
The truest work of love —
Bound to the earth below,
Touched by heaven above.
CHORUS
Breathed into dust —
A living soul arose!
Image of God —
The first and last He chose!
Out of the earth,
A flame that will not die —
Formed in His glory,
Alive beneath the sky!
Bridge
Not iron, not fire,
Not silver, not stone —
Earth kissed by heaven,
Called His own!
Ruler of creation,
Keeper of the field —
A living soul
That will not yield!
FINAL CHORUS - Key lift
Breathed into dust —
A living soul arose!
Image of God —
The first and last He chose!
Out of the earth,
A flame that will not die —
Formed in His glory —
Alive — beneath — the sky!
Breathed into dust —
A living soul arose!
Image of God —
The first and last He chose!
Out of the earth,
A flame that will not die —
Formed in His glory —
Alive — beneath — the sky!
Alive (Alive)
pause
beneath (beneath)
pause
the sky!
