Verse
G#m F# G#m D#
From desert cliff and mountaintop we trace the wide de-sign,
G#m F# D#
Strike-slip fault and overthrust and syn and anti-cline
G#m F# G#m D#
We gaze upon cre-ation where e-rosion makes it known,
G#m F# B C#m G#m F# G#m
And count the countless aeons in the banding of the stone.
F# G#m
Odd, long-vanished creatures and their tracks & shells are found;
F# G#m D#
Where truth has left its sketches on the slate below the ground.
G#m F# G#m D#
The patient stone can speak, if we but listen when it talks.
G#m F# B C# B F# G#m
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the rocks.

[Verse 2]
G#m F# G#m D#
There are those who name the stars, who watch the sky by night,
G#m F# D#
Seeking out the darkest place, to better see the light.
G#m F# G#m D#
Long ago, when torture broke the remnant of his will,
G#m F# B C#m G#m F# G#m
Galileo recanted, but the Earth is moving still.
F# G#m
High above the mountaintops, where only distance bars,
F# G#m D#
The truth has left its footprints in the dust between the stars.
G#m F# G#m D#
We may watch and study or may shudder and de-ny,
G#m F# B C# B F# G#m
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the sky.

[Verse 3]
G#m F# G#m D#
By stem and root and branch we trace, by feather, fang and fur,
G#m F# D#
How the living things that are de-scend from things that were.
G#m F# G#m D#
The moss, the kelp, the zebrafish, the very mice and flies,
G#m F# B C#m G#m F# G#m
These tiny, humble, wordless things, how shall they tell us lies?
F# G#m
We are kin to beasts; no other answer can we bring.
F# G#m D#
The truth has left its fingerprints on every living thing.
G#m F# G#m D#
Remember, should you have to choose be-tween them in the strife,
G#m F# B C# B F# G#m
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the sky.

[Verse 4]
G#m F# G#m D#
And we who listen to the stars, or walk the dusty grade,
G#m F# D#
Or break the very atoms down to see how they are made,
G#m F# G#m D#
Or study cells, or living things, seek truth with open hand.
G#m F# B C#m G#m F# G#m
The profoundest act of worship is to try to understand.
F# G#m
Deep in flower and in flesh, in star and soil and seed,
F# G#m D#
The truth has left its living word for anyone to read.
G#m F# G#m D#
So turn and look where best you think the story is unfurled.
G#m F# B C# B F# G#m
Humans wrote the Bible... God wrote the sky.
