High Praise – (The Song of Job) Lyrics and music by Rebecca J. Huseby.
Before the foundation was measured and laid, Lord of Heaven and earth,
The stars sang together as this world was made, Lord of Heaven and earth,
The sea was held back with bars and with doors And there shall its proud waves be stayed, The morning commanded, the Dayspring has come, Lord of Heaven and earth.
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah! (Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah! Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah!)
The very first dawning when light was set free, Lord of Heaven and earth,
The darkness was shackled to captivity, Lord of Heaven and earth,
The treasures of snow and the treasures of hail,
Reserved against battle and war, The east wind is scattered at the sound of His word, Lord of Heaven and earth.
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah! (Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah! Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah!)
All counsel and wisdom and Excellency, Lord of Heaven and earth, All glory and honor and all majesty, Lord of Heaven and earth, And all of creation, beginning to end, He spoke! And it came to be, The highest of Praises to our God and King, Lord of Heaven and earth,
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah! (Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah! Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah!)
