There is a God
A person speaks over the PA system, simulating that of NASA's mission control announcing the countdown of a ship into orbit:
T minus 40 seconds and counting. The development flight instrumentation recorders are on. T minus 35 seconds. We're just a few seconds away from switching to the redundant set sequencer. T minus 27 seconds. We've gone for redundant set sequencer start. T minus 20 seconds and counting... T minus 15,14, 13,... T minus 10,9,8, 7, 6, 5, 4, run for main engine start...(the sound of a rocket is heard as it takes off and heads into outer space.)
Speaker: 93 million miles from the blistering surface of the sun hangs the planet earth, a rotating sphere perfectly suspended in the center of the universe, the ultimate creation from an infinite mind, an unbelievably intricate, complex design. A supernatural testimony, and irrefutable sign that there is... a God. (As the word "God " is spoken the song begins, with the first four measures repeating as needed until the end of the first verse.)
Verse one (spoken): The size, position and the angle of the earth
is a scientific phenomenon to see.
A few degrees closer to the sun and we'd disintegrate,
a few degrees further we'd freeze.
The axis of the earth is tilted at a perfect 23 degree angle
and it's no mistake that it is.
This allows equal global distribution to the rays of the sun
making it possible for the food chain to exist.
Or take for example the combination of nitrogen and oxygen
in the atmosphere we breath every day.
It just happens to be the exact mix that life needs to prosper.
It doesn't happen on any other planet that way.
You see, the Bible says the invisible things of God are clearly seen
through His creation, to believe this is not hard.
If there's a design, then there's a designer. If there's a plan, there's a planner,
and if there's a miracle, there is a God.
There is a hope, there is a light, there is an answer to all answers. There is a flame that burns in the night. And I know, I know, I know there is a God.
Verse two (spoken): The Scripture says the heavens declare the glory of God
and the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
If we allow our minds to drink in all the truth that just surrounds us,
creation itself will help us understand.
Did you know the moon controls the tides, it's the maid that cleans the oceans,
even the waves don't crash the shores in vain.
The tides drag impurities into the depths of the ocean,
it's nature's constant recycling chain.
It simply boggles the mind to think that the stars will rotate
with such exact precision that it's true,
that the atomic clock, with an error factor of less than
three seconds per millennium is set by the way they move.
Though they silently orbit, the sun, the moon, the stars
are like celestial evangelists above
who circle the earth every 24 hours
shouting in every language that there is a God.
Atheism is the wedge under the foundation of our faith
trying to topple our relationship with Christ.
When the fool says in his heart, there is no God,
he rejects the truth God painted on the canvas of the night.
Atheism has never created an artistic masterpiece,
never healed a fatal disease of calmed a fear.
Atheism has never still given answers to our existence,
peace to a troubled mind of even dried a tear.
For it's God who created heaven and earth and flung the stars in space
and breathed in a handful of dirt and it became man.
It's God who sits on the circle of the earth and measures the mountain in a scale,
and holds the seven seas in the palm of His hand.
It's God who sent His only begotten Son to the cross of Calvary
to save our souls from hell and the grave.
It's God who creates, God who delivers, God who heals
and God who is worthy fo a thunderous ovation of praise!
There is a hope, there is a light, there is an answer to all answers.
There is a flame that burns in the night. And I know, I know, I know there is a God.
There is a hope, there is a light, there is an answer to all answers.
There is a flame that burns in the night. And I know, I know, I know there is a God,
there is a God, there is a God, and I know, I know, I know there is a God. Ooo. fading
