The Earth's Circle
Verse 1 Before the first morning star sang its song to the Heavenly Father! Before the foundation of the Earth was spoken into the universe! Before the first ray of God's glory pierced the vastness of darkness! A deep, wide, and powerful longing burned in the heart of the great Creator God! A longing for children! For creatures like Him! Sons and daughters of eternity! Chorus He created time through stars and planets, to determine time, so that His beloved human would wear a watch designed by Him! A watch that gives Him the rhythm of life! So much is the child loved by God. Oh, how wonderful You are, my Lord and Creator God, who gives so abundantly. Verse 2 When the love of God laid the cornerstone! Planned the foundation of the vast universe! This was to be the home of His beloved human. The birthplace of humankind! The garden of delight! The place of peace and joy. Paradise, where the Creator God, the eternal Father, wanted to spend time with His children! The place where His children come to know Him, appreciate Him, respect Him, and learn to love Him in His boundless way of love. Chorus: He created time through stars and planets to determine time, so that His beloved human being would wear a watch designed by Him! A watch that sets the rhythm of life for Him! So much is the child loved by God. Oh, how wonderful You are, my Lord, and Creator God, who gives so abundantly. Verse 3: He gathered treasures for a very, very long time and deposited them in the precious soil of the earth! From which He built the body of His human being! From this precious and fertile soil of earthly life! He filled the earth with mountains, with lakes, and all kinds of precious goods, so that humankind would have a place of heaven on earth! By walking with their Creator God! All this was accomplished by the love of the Father, of heaven and earth, for His beloved humankind. Chorus: He created time through stars and planets, to determine time, so that His beloved humankind might wear a designer watch! A watch that sets the rhythm of life for Him! So much is the child loved by God. Oh, how wonderful You are, my Lord and Creator God, who gives so abundantly. Outro: But humankind became disobedient to their beloved Creator God and rebelled against Him! But even for this, the Father's love already had a precise plan! He sent His Son! The Word of God, which became flesh! Jesus Christ is His name. He, who knew no sin, took upon Himself the sin of the world, which came through Adam, and thus canceled the debt that stood against fallen humanity! Thus, the Father's love triumphed, and all who acknowledge Him! Jesus Christ as Savior! are once again in the family of the beloved Creator God. Amen!
