Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
[Verse 1]
Dm C Dm A
From desert cliff and mountaintop we trace the wide de-sign,
Dm C A
Strike-slip fault and overthrust and syn and anti-cline
Dm C Dm A
We gaze upon cre-ation where e-rosion makes it known,
Dm C F Gm Dm C Dm
And count the countless aeons in the banding of the stone.
C Dm
Odd, long-vanished creatures and their tracks & shells are found;
C Dm A
Where truth has left its sketches on the slate below the ground.
Dm C Dm A
The patient stone can speak, if we but listen when it talks.
Dm C F G F C Dm
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the rocks.
[Interlude]

Dm C F G F C Dm
[Verse 2]
Dm C Dm A
There are those who name the stars, who watch the sky by night,
Dm C A
Seeking out the darkest place, to better see the light.
Dm C Dm A
Long ago, when torture broke the remnant of his will,
Dm C F Gm Dm C Dm
Galileo recanted, but the Earth is moving still.
C Dm
High above the mountaintops, where only distance bars,
C Dm A
The truth has left its footprints in the dust between the stars.
Dm C Dm A
We may watch and study or may shudder and de-ny,
Dm C F G F C Dm
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the sky.
[Interlude]
Dm C Dm A
Dm C F G F C Dm
[Verse 3]
Dm C Dm A
By stem and root and branch we trace, by feather, fang and fur,
Dm C A
How the living things that are de-scend from things that were.
Dm C Dm A
The moss, the kelp, the zebrafish, the very mice and flies,
Dm C F Gm Dm C Dm
These tiny, humble, wordless things, how shall they tell us lies?
C Dm
We are kin to beasts; no other answer can we bring.
C Dm A
The truth has left its fingerprints on every living thing.
Dm C Dm A
Remember, should you have to choose be-tween them in the strife,
Dm C F G F C Dm
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the sky.
[Interlude]
Dm C Dm A
Dm C F G F C Dm
[Verse 4]
Dm C Dm A
And we who listen to the stars, or walk the dusty grade,
Dm C A
Or break the very atoms down to see how they are made,
Dm C Dm A
Or study cells, or living things, seek truth with open hand.
Dm C F Gm Dm C Dm
The profoundest act of worship is to try to understand.
C Dm
Deep in flower and in flesh, in star and soil and seed,
C Dm A
The truth has left its living word for anyone to read.
Dm C Dm A
So turn and look where best you think the story is unfurled.
