monologue and a combination of the chorus in two different tabs.
Read the opening lines:
* An ocean of black covered the expanse before the creator of the world began.
* The breath of God descended like a dove ladning on the tips of its wings in a pool of light.
* With a kiss the breath of God spoke, "Let there be light!"
* The Lord created me at the beginning. In this distant past I was fashioned at the beginning of the earth.
* There was still no deep when I was brought forth, no springs rich in water.
* Before these mountains were sunk - even before the hills, I was born.
* I was there when he set the heavens into place - when He fixed the horizon upon the deep
* When He made the heavens above the firmanent - before the fountains of the deep rushed forth.
* When He assigned the sea its limits, I was there.
* When He fixed the foundations of the earth, I was with Him as a confidant.
* Rejoicing before Him at all times.
* Rejoicing at his inhabited world.
* Finding myself with you - manking, I came to you when you were at your lowest.
* You opened your arms to accept me - and I was there.
* For everything, absolutely everything, above and below got started in Him and finds its purpose in Him.
Our God is an awesome God.
He reigns from heaven above
with wisdom, pow'r and love
Our God is an awesome God
