Song DescriptionThe earth and my heart was formless and emptiness prevailed, before God spoke words of life. After I came to this incredible impacting realization, all I could do is to stand up and worship, worship and worship Him. There is nothing left to do. That is the whole of man and that is how our souls become completely and absolutely awaken!
Story Behind the SongI wrote this song after I heard a speaker defuting the theory of evolution. He spoke of how all creation and our even our hearts are the greatest prove of an intelligent design.
