The Author - Jimmy Needham

You spoke the word into the vacant universe

You breathed and life became

You wrote the script into the sky

The story told in black and white

Spelling out the glory of Your name

Thanks to Your love every i was dotted

Thanks to Your love every t was crossed

All of heaven and all of earth acknowledge

You’re the Author of the story of the glory of God

Before the earth, before the curse, before the crown of thorns was made

You penned the end before we even went astray

So why are we surprised?

The Son of Man that came to die

Knew this day before the world was made

You know our prayers before they’re even prayed

Thanks to Your love every i was dotted

Thanks to Your love every t was crossed

All of heaven and all of earth acknowledge

You’re the Author of the story of the glory of God

The words You speak are poetry

I’ll gladly be the melody

Until every ear has finally heard

It’s all part of Your perfect plan

From the garden to the fall of man

From the day You rose to the day You’ll return

Thanks to Your love every i was dotted

Thanks to Your love every t was crossed

All of heaven and all of earth acknowledge

You’re the Author of the story of the glory of God
