From the Very Beginning

From the very beginning,
God has been working out
His plan, His will,
for the world, for His people
moving beyond the law,
salvation by His word, by
His love, spilled out,
poured out, over all of creation
from the very beginning,
our Savior, our God, His Spirit
all working His one plan
a saving for all, light in the darkness
out of God’s grace, living
with us, walking among us
changing our lives, our future
redeemed, for all time
The law, weak as we are,
salvation, worked out, planned
from the beginning of time
revealed in Him, the Word
made flesh, made human,
At the right time
made real for all
love poured out, by His blood
a sacrifice, restoring all to God
as part of His perfect plan
from the very beginning
