The Sovereign Smiled

Instrumental Intro

Chorus

Breath of the spirit on the face of the deep

Vast and black the ancient waters sleep

Let there be light

The Sovereign smi-iled

Verse 1

The Raquia fixed between the floods

Follows orders from the mouth of God

Waters gathering below the arching dome

Dry land rises as a solid home

Seeds in the soil

Sprouting and green

Fruit on the branches where nothing had been

Pre-Chorus

Lights in the vault for signs and seasons

Sun, moon and stars - each one a beacon

Governing the day, heat from the sunray

Governing the night, moonlight is cold

Chorus

Breath of the spirit on the face of the deep

Vast and black the ancient waters sleep

Let there be light

The Sovereign smi-iled

Verse 2

Creatures of the tide

Leviathan moves in the swell

Feathered wings soar

Wonders to tell

Swarming the heights

Chorus

Breath of the spirit on the face of the deep

Vast and black the ancient waters sleep

Let there be light

The Sovereign smi-iled

Verse 3

Formed from the clay in His skilful hands

Image of the Maker in a garden of grace

Waking up to a divine hidden face

Everything was great

Everything was right

The Sovereign smiled

Chorus

The Holy Spirit on the face of the deep

Vast and black the ancient waters sleep

Let there be light

The Sovereign smiled

Chorus

Breath of the Spirit on the face of the deep

Vast and black the ancient waters sleep

Let there be light

The Sovereign smiled

Post-Chorus

Halleluyah

Halleluyah

Halleluyah
