C F C F

Verse 1

You're[C] the Word [F]of God the Father
From[C] before t[G]he world began.
Ev'r[F]y star an[C]d ev'ry planet
Has b[Dm]een fashion[F]ed by Your hand.
Al[C]l creation[F] holds together
By t[C]he power[G] of Your voice.
Let t[F]he skies de[C]clare Your glory;
Let t[Dm]he land and[G] seas rejoice!

Chorus

You're[F] the A[C]uthor of creation;
You're[G] the Lord[Am] of ev'ry man;
And Y[F]our cry of [C]lov[G]e rings [C]out across the lands.

Verse 2

Yet Y[C]ou left th[F]e gaze of angels,
Came[C] to seek an[G]d save the lost,
And [F]exchanged [C]the joy of heaven
For t[Dm]he anguish[F] of a cross.
With[C] a prayer Y[F]ou fed the hungry;
With[C] a word Yo[G]u calmed the sea;
Yet [F]how silen[C]tly You suffered
That [Dm]the guilty [G]may go free!

Chorus

You're[F] the A[C]uthor of creation;
You're[G] the Lord[Am] of ev'ry man;
And Y[F]our cry of [C]lov[G]e rings [C]out across the lands.

Verse 3

With[C] a shout Yo[F]u rose victorious,
Wresti[C]ng vict'r[G]y from the grave,
And[F] ascend[C]ed into heaven,
Lead[Dm]ing captives[F] in Your way.
Now Y[C]ou stand [F]before the Father,
Int[C]erceding [G]for Your own;
From [F]each tribe an[C]d tongue and nation,
   Dm   G  G (ext measure)
You are leading sinners home!

Chorus

You're[F] the A[C]uthor of creation;
You're[F] the Lor[Am]d of ev'ry man;
And Y[F]our cry of [C]lov[G]e rings [C]out across the lands.
You're[F] the A[C]uthor of creation;
You're[F] the Lor[Am]d of ev'ry man;
And Y[F]our cry of [C]lov[G]e rings [C]out across the lands.
