By His word, in the beginnin' by His word
By His word, in the beginnin' by His word
He divided up the light into day and into night
And He saw that it was right by His word

Then He made the earth and seas by His word
Then He made the earth and seas by His word
Made the sun to rule the day and the moon in bright array
Put the stars on the Milky Way by his word

Glory, glory hallelujah
By His word, we started livin' by His word
By His word, we started livin' by His word
Over rock and sky and sea he gave us authority
So, His children could be free by His word

By His word, He made the Sabbath by His word
By His word, He made the Sabbath by His word
He gave us this day of rest, so, who'd 've thought would be the best
And the sabbath day he blessed by His word

Then He made the earth and seas by His word
Then He made the earth and seas by His word
Made the sun to rule the day and the moon in bright array
Put the stars on the Milky Way by His word
By His word, by His word, by His word
