In the Beginning

In the beginning God created the heavens and earth And some think it all came by chance, what a big mirth That life arose by itself from chemical soup and from it birth Soup formed by unceasing rain on the volcanic hearth For this theory came when none knew the complexities of life or its worth Formulated by those who deliberately ignore God's love and incur his wrath For the advances of science and genetics proclaim this theories dearth Over the earth His Spirit did brood  He spoke again and it happened In His wisdom all well designed and good Life in all its different kinds rampant Every part in its place and functioning as it should Then God formed man by His own hands In His own image created He him He gave him control over all the lands And home in a garden with fruits to the brim And a companion Eve as satisfied not animal friends Eat of all fruits but not of wrong and right The serpent came and Eve did ensnare Eve saw the fruit was desirous to the sight For of the enemy's deceit she was not aware They did eat and to creation brought blight Can't blame the fruit on the tree but the human pair Of their nakedness they now became aware The creation cursed and in despair So His only beloved Son, God sent to repair And for himself a holy people prepare And if all this you know and are aware Then God wants you with others share And to really love others and care And lift them to God in prayer That all turn from sins and to God everywhere
