In the beginning was a mighty bang
As the shockwaves spread and the heavens rang
From the start this world was violent
Man asked why but the sky was silent
God was moved, he made a choice
He said: 'let music be my voice.'

Let there be music
Music will be...
And you shall hear my story
You will glimpse my glory
And find a refuge
From the trouble that you see

Let there be music
Music will be...
And if your burden grieves you
Your baby ups and leaves you
I'll be your blues if you should choose
To lean on me

He, he said let there be (let there be)
Music, and there was...
Children don't you cry, because
He, he said let there be (let there be)
Music, and there was...
Children don't you cry, because...
There shall be music
Music will be...
And if cupid's bow
Strikes you low
Hey Jules and Jim
I wrote the hymn to ectasy

He, he said let there be (let there be)
Music, and there was...
Children don't you cry, because...

I am always near you
So don't think I can't hear you
I am present, I am calling
In the sound when rain is falling

I wear the thin disguise
The lovers' sobs and sighs...
Don't you know
Who I am?

(woo-hooo-hoo-ooo-ooo)
Who I am? (woo-hooo-hoo-ooo-ooo)

He, he said let there be (he said let there be)
Music, and there was...
Children don't you cry, because
He, he said let there be
Music, and there was...
Children don't you cry, because
There shall be music
Music will be...
