Lyrics
In The Beginning
Music and lyrics by: Bill Dake 2004 ASCAP
In The Beginning there was nothin' at all
Then a flash of light answered the call
For the dance to begin
Churning and swirling with forces unknown
Makin' somethin' from nothin'
New places to roam
New voices to sing
Ever expanding, it'll never stand still
And we're all connected
All part of the thrill
And the wonder of it all
In these vast and changing rhythms
Somewhere hearts collide
Through some tender mercies, join the ride
And In The Beginning as the earth finally cooled
And the oceans were formed
So the fish could be schooled
A stew full of creatures
Filled up the bleachers
Some evolution
Fine execution
And In The Beginning
When I was nothin' at all
Yours was the spark
That answered my call
For the dance to begin
And you thrill me still
