“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”
Genesis 1:1
By faith we know, the world was made
Formless at first and void:
We know, the universe decayed
Shall be by fire destroyed:
But soon the coeternal Son
We shall in glory view,
Jehovah sitting on his throne,
Creating all things new.
