Genesis op 14 by Mark D. Falcone — Lyrics
In the beginning out of chaos God created the universe.
He created the great light, and the darkness and then the sky and then the waters and then the fire.
He created all trees and all sea creatures and all land animals. Then God rested.
Upon day break God rose and He created Adam who is the image of God’s being.
But Adam was lonely and he desired someone like himself.

About Genesis op 14
Genesis op 14 sets the creation narrative from the book of Genesis in English. The SATB setting draws on the profound imagery of God bringing order out of chaos, from the creation of light and darkness to the formation of the natural world and humanity. The text emphasizes God's satisfaction with His creation, finding it 'very good'. The music aims to reflect the grandeur and ultimate peace of this foundational story. This sacred work is presented in standard staff notation.
