Let's go back to the beginning before time had begun,
standing in the presence of God the Eternal One.
Time and space have no meaning in this spiritual world
but watch now, as our Universe gradually unfurled.

Back at the beginning God said "Let there be,"
and out of nothing made the universe that we see.
The timeless "Eternal Now" had been broken
as these creative words by God were spoken.

With a mighty bang the universe exploded,
as each photon with God's power was loaded.
It travelled forward at such a colossal pace
transforming the new regions of time and space.

From this first moment, time started to tick away
and the minutes and hours became the first day.
The curvature of space was being transformed
and out of nothing the vast universe was formed.

Sub atomic particles entered onto to the scene,
and atoms formed molecules that could be seen.
Then in its infancy the universe began to grow
and it filled the emptiness of the void as it did so.

This universe had become the dwelling place
for all of the stars and galaxies existing in space.
It continued expanding and as time moved on,
into virgin territory with its new formed creation.

Then one day on a speck of cosmic dust called Earth
in the species of Homo sapiens humankind had its birth.
Today, many aeons later, they look up at the sky
and ask searching questions such as "How" and "Why?"
