poems of grace - It Was Good

You spoke light into the darkness
Matter to existence
And it was good
You brought life into the formless
Order to chaos
And it was good
Separated sky and sea
You made them too
You made them too
And You brought the land together
And made plains and made mountains
And made valleys
It was good
It was good
It was good
It was good
Fruit-yielding trees
Seeds in the ground
Each one making its own kind
You saw each plant
And what it would do
To bring our world to life
It was good
It was good
It was good
It was good
Then planets set in motion
The sun to rule the day
And the moon to pierce the darkness of night
There were stars and there were galaxies
Thrown into orbit
You made it so they all shine
It was good
It was good
It was good
It was good
And the waters started trembling
With each fish and dolphin
And whale and octopus and all
And the sky started fluttering
As the birds filled the trees
And life burst forth into song
It was good
It was good
It was good
It was good
Then beasts of the field
And every creeping thing
Found its partner in one another
But creation wasn't finished
Without someone in His image
So God took the dust and made us
It was good
It was good
It was good
But not yet done
So God put him to sleep
And brought from his own side
A helper fit for him
That he and she eternally
Would rest in Love for all time
It was good
It was good
It was good
For them
It was very good
It was very good
It was very good
For us
It was very good
It was very good
It was very good
Until it wasn't
