1.I believe in You, because of tall cedar trees
Soaring and touching the sky
I believe in You, because of the Pleiades
Singing Your praises at night
Ev’ry tree and constellation
Tells me that Your hand is in
Ev’ry work of Your creation
Fashioned with love
Through the pure Word of God
2.I believe in You, because of the deep joy
Stirs in our hearts when we love
I believe that You have given us hands to reach out
As if sent from above
Husband, wife and brother, sister
Parent, child and neighbour, friend
All reflect the threefold unity
Father, Son, Spirit – the faces of God
3.I believe in You because of man’s deep need to
Search out the secrets of God
I believe in You, because into man’s heart
The Genesis spirit is poured
Great inventions, great discov’ries
Canvas, bronze and music stave
All bear witness to creation’s spark
Burning so bright
In the pow’r of Your Name
Bridge
But we have seen over thousands of years
Your love turned to hate
And creation was smeared
With the blood of oppression
And man’s ingenuity
Turned to destruction of loveliness in ev’ry form
Therefore -----
4.When the time was come
You entered our broken world
Seeking and saving the lost
Giving up Your rights to Sonship and glory
Emptied Yourself at great cost
Sacrifice, Golgotha’s judgment
Making new all that was marred
All creation groans expectant
Until the new earth
Comes down from above
Postscript
The long night is over
The new wine from heaven has come
