Let Us Create
Before there was time,
What were You thinking?
How did You spend all of Your days?
You thought of me
You knew my form
You knew my failings
But even though You knew the grief You would bear
And the costly price You would have to pay, You said:
Let's create Man in Our image
Let them be My daughters and sons
And though they will fail and won't think of Me
I will give Myself away
To bring them back
So they can have what We had before there was time
Before there was time,
Before You created
Before You placed the first star in the sky
The Father and Son
With Spirit, one
Overflowing joy and love
But even though You knew the grief You would bear
And the costly price You would have to pay, You said:
Let's create Man in Our image
Let them be My daughters and sons
And though they will fail and won't think of Me
I will give Myself away
To bring them back
So they can have what We had before there was time
But while I pray for health and comfort
Safety, pleasure, and abundant wealth
A trouble-free life without a fight
I see You giving Yours all away
Giving Yours all away
But even though You knew the grief You would bear
And the costly price You would have to pay, You said:
Let's create Man in Our image
Let them be My daughters and sons
And though they will fail and won't think of Me
I will give Myself away
To bring them back
So they can have what We had before there was time
