In the beginning created

In Your image, to live on this earth

To create and cultivate

To rule this earth Your way

And at our birth You rejoiced 

Saying this is a very good day

.

You rejoice over us us with singing, Papa God

You embrace us with Your praise

For we are Your creations crowning jewel

As Your Salvation we display

.

Though from Your paths we have wandered

In rebellion gone astray

Yet some chose to stay beside you

Hearing Your Voice each day

As they walked with You in obedience

You promised mankind to save

.

You rejoice over us us with singing, Papa God

You embrace us with Your praise

For we are Your creations crowning jewel

As Your Salvation we display

.

You sent Your Son to show us

What mankind could truly be

If healed and delivered

From our rebellious streak

And reborn in Your likeness

As we were designed to be

.

You rejoice over us us with singing, Papa God

You embrace us with Your praise

For we are Your creations crowning jewel

As Your Salvation we display

.

You sent Your Son as our Sacrifice

To die our death, pay our sins’ price

And rise from death on the third day

To Heaven’s Throne in victory

Eternal Life to give in favour 

To all who call Him Lord and Saviour

.

You rejoice over us us with singing, Papa God

You embrace us with Your praise

For we are Your creations crowning jewel

As Your Salvation we display

.

As we embrace Jesus’ life in us

Become like Him, One with Christ

We are restored to Your image and rule

As Your Sons eternally

Forever with You, by Your side

In Jesus’ image glorified

.

You rejoice over us us with singing, Papa God

You embrace us with Your praise

For we are Your creations crowning jewel

As Your Salvation we display
