Genesis 1:1-2
The Revelation of God in Creation
The first Sunday of 2026 is a fitting time to return to the very beginning. This Sunday we launch a new series, Let There Be, as Pastor Jared opens Genesis 1:1-2 and we listen again to the God who speaks light into darkness and brings order out of chaos. These opening words of Scripture help us see who God is and why our world needs His restoring work. Take a few moments to read the passage and prepare your heart for worship, and consider inviting someone to come with you.
Lyrics
He who was before there was light
Walked across the pages of time
He who made every living thing
Behold Him
He who heard humanity's cry
Left His throne to wake as a child
He became like the least of us
Behold Him
Jesus, Son of God, Messiah
The Lamb, the roaring Lion
Oh, be still and behold Him
He who dined with sinners and saints
Healed the blind, the lost and the lame
Even now He is in our midst
Behold Him
He who chose a criminal's end
Paid with blood to settle our debt
Buried death as He rose to life
Behold Him
Jesus, Son of God, Messiah
The Lamb, the roaring Lion
Oh, be still and behold Him
Jesus, Alpha and Omega
Our God, the risen Savior
Oh, be still and behold Him
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Worthy, worthy, worthy
To receive all praise
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Worthy, worthy, worthy
To receive all praise
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Worthy, worthy, worthy
To receive all praise
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Worthy, worthy, worthy
To receive all praise
Jesus, Son of God, Messiah
The Lamb, the roaring Lion
Oh, be still and behold Him
Jesus, Alpha and Omega
Our God, the risen Savior
Oh, be still and behold Him
Behold Him
All Creatures of Our God and King
Lyrics
All creatures of our God and King
Lift, up your voice and with us sing
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou, burning sun with golden beam
Thou, silver moon with softer gleam
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Let all things their Creator bless
And worship Him in humbleness
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son
And praise the Spirit, three-in-one
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
All the redeemed, washed by His blood
Come and rejoice in His great love
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Christ has defeated every sin
Cast all your burdens now on Him
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
He shall return in power to reign
Heaven and earth will join to say
"O praise Him! Alleluia!"
Then who shall fall on bended knee?
All creatures of our God and King
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Ancient of Days
Lyrics
Though the nations rage
Kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one king
Reigning over all
So I will not fear
For this truth remains:
That my God is, the Ancient of Days
None above him, none before him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days
Though the dread of night
Overwhelms my soul
He is here with me
I am not alone
O his love is sure
And He knows my name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days
None above him, none before himÂ
All of time in His handsÂ
For His throne it shall remain and ever standÂ
All the power all the gloryÂ
I will trust in His nameÂ
For my God is, the Ancient of Days
Though I may not see
What the future brings
I will watch and wait
For the Saviour king
Then my joy complete
Standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days
None above him, none before himÂ
All of time in His handsÂ
For His throne it shall remain and ever standÂ
All the power all the gloryÂ
I will trust in His nameÂ
For my God is, the Ancient of Days
