[Verse 1] Formless and void I was a deep with no name Surface all shattered All of it moving the same Dark on the face No map, no hinge, no frame Then over the waters Your breath came Spinning like silt in a jar Like ash in a bowl Tongue in my mouth Still I couldn't make whole Hands full of chaos Mouth full of clay Then You said, “Let there be” And the night gave way [Pre-Chorus] Hover Over the flood Hover Over the mud Hover Over the ruin below Wait for the word Wait for the glow [Chorus] Tohu va-bohu Then You spoke Tohu va-bohu And it broke Tohu va-bohu Called good What was wild Now understood [Verse 2] You cut the dark Like a seam through cloth You set the times Where the waves were lost One name for the sky One name for the seas One name for the dust Kneeling at Your knees I was a swell With a storm in my chest Still You were steady You did the rest Not by my force Not by my plan Just the voice of the Father Over wasteland [Pre-Chorus] Hover Over the flood Hover Over the mud Hover Over the ruin below Wait for the word Wait for the glow [Chorus] Tohu va-bohu Then You spoke Tohu va-bohu And it broke Tohu va-bohu Called good What was wild Now understood [Bridge] Cut the line Let the old noise fall One clear syllable Over all From the deep To the daybreak edge You make a home In the broken ledge I was scattered You gathered my dust I was unruly You made me trust Say it again And the chaos bends Word by Word The void ends [Final Chorus] Tohu va-bohu Then You spoke Tohu va-bohu And it broke Tohu va-bohu Called good What was wild Now understood Tohu va-bohu Breath and flame Tohu va-bohu You still name Tohu va-bohu Make me new What was none Belongs to You
