Creation Sings the Father's Song

Emily and I have been thoroughly enjoying Keith and Kristyn Getty's album "awaken the dawn."  It may be purchased at amazon. What follows are the soaring gospel-soaked lyrics of the third song on the CD, one of our favorites:

Creation sings the Father's song
He calls the sun to wake the dawn
And run the course of day
Till evening falls in crimson rays
His fingerprints in flakes of snow
His breath upon this spinning globe
He charts the eagle's flight
Command's the newborn baby's cry

Hallelujah!
Let all creation stand and sing
Hallelujah!
Fill the earth with songs of worship
Tell the wonders of creation's King

Creation gazed upon his face
The ageless One in time's embrace
Unveiled the Father's plan
Of reconciling God and man
A second Adam walked the earth
Whose blameless life would break the curse
Whose death would set us free
To live with Him eternally

Hallelujah!
Let all creation stand and sing
Hallelujah!
Fill the earth with songs of worship
Tell the wonders of creation's King

Creaton longs for His return
When Christ shall reign upon the earth
The bitter wars that rage
Are birth pains of a coming age
When He renews the land and sky
All heav'n will sing and earth reply
With one resplendent theme
The glories of our God and King!
