The soundless deep is ragged 'round the edges   A rushing Wind is moving on the water   We hear your voice the universe commanding   Let there be light and all around is brightness   Chaos recedes to her boundaries   The morning stars sing together, together      We are what we are for the sake of Your glory   What we will be is because of your mercy   Speak forth the world, Lord and tell us the story   And let the redeemed say amen      The newborn sky is trying on her jewelry   A billion eyes are gazing up in wonder   One billion lungs take their first breath of air   And with their next they are singing      We are what we are for the sake of Your glory   What we will be is because of your mercy   Speak forth the world, Lord and tell us the story   And let the redeemed say amen      And in the east, you're kneeling in a garden   You shape the clay until it looks just like you   Breathing on us, we awaken to hear   Good. It is good, very good      We are from You, to You   Towards You, for You   To enjoy You forever Amen      In the Garden, on the Tree   Mercy offered full and free   On the mountain, on the sea   Shining in Your sovereignty      We are what we are for the sake of Your glory   What we will be is because of your mercy   Speak forth the world, Lord and tell us the story   And let the redeemed say amen
