God created Heaven and earth, Stretched them in the vastness of space; Spread out the earth to give new birth, As the Lord was shedding His grace. He gave breath to all His creatures, And a spirit who walks in it; Righteousness to all that features, Holiness is what they merit. He has called us in righteousness, Taking you by the hand to keep; And blessing you with graciousness, Watching over you as you sleep. For He gives a new covenant, A new light for all the nations; To stretch over each continent, Establishing His relations. He opens the eyes of the blind, Freeing prisoners from the dark; Loosening any chains that bind, A free will where they will embark. For He is the Lord our God, And glory goes to no other; To whom you shall honor and laud, With praises for not another. The former things have come to pass, As the new things He will declare; As the old will wither like grass, Before they spring forth as to share.
