Verse One
Long ago the earth was black
Then God spoke, “Light!” and that was that
Day was born and so was night
God was happy with the sight
He put the sky into its place
Water over and under the space
Evening came and morning too
God look out and said, “It’s good!”
Next came oceans and the land
Trees and bushes, lots of plants
Everything was green and bright
God was happy with the sight
Lights were made for day and night
The sun and moon and stars so bright
He laughed and named each one with love
God was pleased and said, “It’s good!”
He filled the waters and the sky
With swimming fishes and birds that fly
He blessed them all with pure delight
God was happy with the sight
Next the earth was filled with life
Animals of every kind
He then made man with special love
God was pleased and said, “It’s good!”

Verse Two
Angelfish and Barracudas,
Giant Clams and Daddy Longlegs,
Eagles soaring high above,
Each one shows me God is love.
Furry Foxes, gaggling Geese,
Happy Horses, Impalas free,
Jack fish swimming in the sea,
Singing love songs just for me.
Koalas cuddle, Llamas climb,
Macaws mimic, narwhals swim,
Owls sit wisely in the trees,
Each created just to be.
Playful porpoise, quizzical quail,
Running rabbit, slow moving snail,
Tiger slinking in the night,
Point to God and all His might.
Umbrella birds, voles and wrens,
Ancient armored Xenarthrans*,
Youyous, Yaks and zebras too,
Made by God for me and you.
