One day a dream became a vision
In the Builder's eye
As He formed with loving hands
What He conceived
So in the image of His own love
He created man
Then the woman for the man
Made it complete
Now the three of them united
The Creator was delighted
And throughout the garden
You could hear Him speak

It's just the way I planned it
And it's just the way I wanted it to be
When I crеated you in the image of Mе
It's just the way I planned it
And you're right where I created you
To be close to Me
Now it's just the way I planned it to be

Then the fellowship was broken
When the man and woman fell
The Creator and creation torn apart
But reuniting was the mission
Of the Savior's plan
Restoring life back to the broken heart
Man and woman have been given
Another chance at livin'
And we can hear Father
Say those words again
Now it's just the way I planned it
And it's just the way I wanted it to be
When I created you in the image of Me
Now it's just the way I planned it
And you're right where I created you
To be close to Me
Now it's just the way I planned it to be, oh...

Oh, it's just the way I planned it
And it's just the way I wanted it to be
When I created you in the image of Me
Now it's just the way I planned it
And you're right where I created you
To be close to Me
Now it's just the way I planned it to be

Just the way I planned it
And it's just the way I wanted it to be
When I created you in the image of Me
Now it's just the way I planned it
And you're right where I created you
To be close to Me
Now it's just the way I planned it to be, oh...

Just the way I planned it
And it's just the way I wanted it to be
When I created you in the image of Me
Now it's just the way I planned it
And you're right where I created you
To be close to Me
Now it's just the way I planned it to be
