Lyrics:

In the beginning there was heaven and earth
The heavens were high and the earth was green
And there was day and there was night
And the length of hours stretched between

In the beginning though the world was my own
I sorrowed for something I knew not of
And God was kind and with careful hands
He brought me love

And God was kind and with careful hands
He brought me you
