[Intro]

Before anything He created inhabited earth He was everything alone He was God on His own He was still King with a throne

It’s not His creation that made Him the greatest

You cannot get greater than ultimate greatness

It’s out of His love that He chose to create us


[Verse 1: Day 1]

Created the Heavens, and then He created the earth

He hadn’t fashioned us yet We were still part of the dirt

It was still black as my skin

Before we contended with sin

And the ending began

And the enemy entered into tha dimension

Devising division that led to dissension

The Spirit of God inhabited sky, and hovering over us all

Then He said let there be light and He switched on the light and saw it was good for us all

Then He took all of the light He created

And decided to surgically separate it

He called the brightness the day

And the darkness the night

And today they still right where he placed em

That’s Day One


[Interlude]


[Verse 2: Day 2]

On Day Two, He continued the mission

His vision became clearer

World was water, placed an expanse in the center

Split the water down the middle

Put water above the expanse

The water below the expanse He left it

We call the expanse I reference “the sky”

Our God calls it “the Heavens”


[Verse 3: Day 3]

On Day Three, He said, “Separate”

Water under Heaven into one place

Water was ocean, dry was land

The new turf was then named “earth”

Out of the earth came vegetation

All of the plants and seeds

And you know a tree by the fruit it bears

So on good soil sow seeds


[Verse 4: Day 4]

On Day Four, He brought out the lights He told them to shine in the sky

Separate all of the seasons, all of the years

Separate day from the night

He hung up the sun and the moon

Then plotted out all of the stars

Everything we see distributing light was created for us on Day Four

But, if you been tracking the story, then something ain’t right

‘Cause He had said, “Let there be light” on Day One, so what was the light?

It wasn't no sun, it wasn't no moon, and He hadn't plotted the stars

So what was the sources of light if the sources of light were created Day Four?

God! God is the source and they're just a reflection

The sun, the moon, the stars reflections of Him

He is the essence

He is the light, He is the life

He is the giver of blessings

He makes the visible possible out of the darkness into incandescence


[Verse 5: Day 5]

On Day Five, He brought the ocean alive

Everything we see that swim in the sea

He created and it multiplied That big fish

That’s gone swallow Jonah when he try to run from his calling

Them two fish

That Jesus gone whip up in John and feed over 5,000

All the fish

The disciples gone catch when they switch the side they cast in their net

And that one fish

That Peter gone catch with the coin in its mouth to pay off their tax

Next on the list, He told the sky to fly

Everything we see that soar up above He created and it multiplied

The Raven

That ah feed Elijah showing

God can even use the unclean

The Rooster Crows, three, signifying Peter has denied He

The Dove

From up above on Christ’s

Shoulder let The Spirit free And I know

His eyes on The Sparrow, then He’s watching over me


[Music]


[Verse 6: Day 6]

Day Six God spoke to the earth, “Generate more life” and it listened

Livestock like the one sheep when the ninety-nine go missing

Crawling creatures like the locusts He gone send to Pharaoh

“Yeah I mean business”

And wildlife like them lions in the den with Daniel but they couldn’t kill him

“Now let us make man in Our Image Creating them after Our Likeness”

He speaking in plural The Trinity with Him The Son and The Spirit beside Him

Our Highness created us with a purpose part of His vision And ours, represent, rule, reproduce that’s the mission

Represent God fully focused so that you can clearly see His Image

Rule on behalf of Him through trust, this here family business

Reproduce God’s presence is the premise, I’ll endure it till the ending

Think it’s finish that’s when He replenish and it’s been His plan since beginning

And then we were given the plants of the earth and fruit of the trees to eat

Except for that one and you know what we done

Ironically it wasn’t sweet

And then He saw all that He made and very good He perceived indeed

And then there was evening and there was morning And the Sixth Day was finally complete


[Music]


[Verse 7: Day 7]

God doesn’t sleep or slumber, but

It says on the Seventh Day He rested

But if He God, He ain’t getting tired

So what’s the reason that He rested?

‘Cause everything He do destined

He rested for us as a model

That we should rest in Him, work from that

And that’s the only plan we should follow

The Seventh Day is the Sabbath Day

God set it aside as holy

Rest in Him, cast all cares of

The world, really get to know Him

And pray from your heart with devotion

Let go of that fear that you holding

All of that pain and trauma

That drama

You really just gotta let go of it

He was there for it all, He know of it

Take hold of The Spirit, let go of it

Gone drown in them tears

Or swim in that living water

That He pouring is flowing in

Yeah, take you a sip and drink more of it

Yeah, you got you some God but get more of Him

You thinking ‘bout leaving

Been thinking ‘bout you since the genesis like, “Where we going then?”


[Bridge]

I’m an informant Flipped on the state

Blood and bread on my plate

I cannot rest till my brothers is safe

And they carved out a space

In their heart for their faith

Bowing and bending but never would break

I took all of that hate and replaced it with grace

And the wager of sin is my death

But my Savior took wrath on behalf of my flesh

And stood right in my place


[Music]

The wager of sin is my death

But my Savior took wrath on behalf of my flesh

And stood right in my...


[Outro]
