so will i (100 billion x)

god of creation

there at the start

before the beginning of time

with no point of reference

you spoke to the dark

and fleshed out the wonder of light

and as you speak

a hundred billion galaxies are born

in the vapour of your breath the planets form

if the stars were made to worship so will i

i can see your heart in everything you've made

every burning star

a signal fire of grace

if creation sings your praises so will i

god of your promise

you don't speak in vain

no syllable empty or void

for once you have spoken

all nature and science

follow the sound of your voice

and as you speak

a hundred billion creatures catch your breath

evolving in pursuit of what you said

if it all reveals your nature so will i

i can see your heart in everything you say

every painted sky

a canvas of your grace

if creation still obeys you so will i

if the stars were made to worship so will i

if the mountains bow in reverence so will i

if the oceans roar your greatness so will i

for if everything exists to lift you high so will i

if the wind goes where you send it so will i

if the rocks cry out in silence so will i

if the sum of all our praises still falls shy

then we'll sing again a hundred billion times

god of salvation

you chased down my heart

through all of my failure and pride

on a hill you created

the light of the world

abandoned in darkness to die

and as you speak

a hundred billion failures disappear

where you lost your life so i could find it here

if you left the grave behind you so will i

i can see your heart in everything you've done

every part designed in a work of art called love

if you gladly chose surrender so will i

i can see your heart

eight billion different ways

every precious one

a child you died to save

if you gave your life to love them so will i

like you would again a hundred billion times

but what measure could amount to your desire

you're the one who never leaves the one behind
