[Verse]
DSomewhere out in empty space
DLong before the human race
A Something stirred
A Emvast and timeless source began
InAtelligence was born and then
D There was the world
DPowers filled the universe
D7Matter formed and broke the curse
Of Gnothingness
ALove became an ageless soul
ANature reached her highest goal
D And breathed the breath of Alife
A | D | Bb |
Everlasting life
[Verse]
Well Ebcreatures come from out of sight
Eb Daylight came from in the night
Bb And all was good
FmLife became a Masterplan
BbLove produced the perfect man
Eb That's understood
The Ebimage of the makers word
Eb7Worshipped him with all he had
But Abthen one day
From Bbin the depths an evil seed
BbGrew and manufactured greed
Eb That changed the way of Bblife
Bb | Eb | B |
Everlasting life
[Verse]
Oh the Eloving power looked and saw
InEside the heart of man a flaw
B Began to grow
Well, the F#mfires of hell began to burn
And Bso he sent his chosen son
E To let us know
That Elove had surely made us all
And E7hate would surely make us fall
So Afrom the cross
Well he Bshowed the world that dreadful day
That Bsus4love could be the Bonly way
Or Eall is lost of Blife
B Everlasting Elife
E For life is Blove

And love is life
