Begins

To an aged man God spoke Words that sounded like a joke Soon his wife would bear a child A saying hard to reconcile So he asked, can this thing be? Can a nation spring from me? With a body grown so old In a word this man was told Chorus: Your life begins with God Your love begins with God Your hopes and your dreams And your plans begin with God Your life begins with God Your love begins with God Your hopes and your dreams And your plans begin with God, begin with God From a valley full of bones To a man of God, well known Came a vision strange but true Mighty things the Lord would do He would breathe them back to life His command caused them to rise Like the nation He would raise To the glory of His praise Repeat Chorus I was standing on the edge of the world Hopelessly alone in the dark In the beginning all was empty and void In my mind, my soul, my heart of hearts The Creator came and moved in my life He spoke and turned my darkness to light Day by day He's rearranging my ways He's my Lord, my God, my King To a leper on his face To a woman's dark disgrace To a prisoner's empty night To a blind man's quest for sight To a mother's boy lying dead (you're not alone) To a beggar's plea for bread (you're not alone) To a lame man's crippled bones (you're not alone) To a stranger's journey home (you're going home) Repeat Chorus Begins with God (Begin with God, Begin with God) Begins with God (Begin with God, Begin with God) Begins with God (Begin with God, Begin with God)
