Way back in the beginning
When the world was dark and void
One thing moved on the water
It was the Spirit of the Lord
The first day He created a light
The fifth day all the animals were born
But on the sixth day when He did breathe
Man became a living form

He made something out of nothing
And put me on His way
He pulled me out of the miry pit
On the solid rock to stay
I can't tell you how it happened
This I really don't know
He made something out of nothing
When He saved my soul

It wasn't long before man had sinned
And broke the fellowship of God within
But God sent His only seed
To bruise the devil's head at Calvary
I once was lost but now I'm found
I once was blind but I have new sight
I stand before you a brand new man
Full of the power of His might
He made something out of nothing
And put me on His way
He pulled me out of the miry pit
On the solid rock to stay
I can't tell you how it happened
This I really don't know
He made something out of nothing
When He saved my soul

I can't tell you how it happened
This I really don't know
He made something out of nothing
When He saved my soul
He made something out of nothing
When He saved my soul
