                       C#6
On the morning of creation
G#                             C#/F
Father, Son and the Spirit rise
F#                           C#/F
As they set the world in motion
     F#                      D#m7
The morning of the first sunrise
    C#                   A#m7
A symphony of golden sunlight
 G#sus4                   C#/F
Dancing in the Father's eyes
    F#                  C#/F
He gazes at His masterpiece
   G#
As all creation cries

Chorus:
D#m7   C#  A#m7  G#   C#/F  F#   C#/F  A#m
Hal - le - lu - jah,  hal - le - lu -  jah
D#m7  C#   A#m7  G#   C#/F  F#   C#/F  A#m
Hal - le - lu - jah,  hal - le - lu -  jah

C#                        A#m7
Man shakes the fist at heaven
    G#sus4                      C#/F
The breath of God still in his lungs
    F#                    C#/F
A brokenhearted Father grieves
    F#                    D#m7
In love He sends His only Son
C#                              A#m7
He was bruised for our transgressions
G#sus4                      C#/F
Crushed and buried in the ground
       F#                      C#/F
As the sunrise finds an empty tomb
       G#
The redeemed of God resound

Chorus

             G#       A#m C# G#
Holy quiet grips the night
                    C#     F#
The morning of the last sunrise
                 G#       A#m
Broken slumber, blinding light
                C#      G#
Nations tremble at the sight
                      C#       F#
The Son of Man just split the sky
                G#       A#m
Every saint and every scoffer
               C#      G#
Every king and every pauper
               C#    Fm            F#
At the name of Jesus all fall face down
           G#           A#m
From holy ground we'll rise
                       C#      G#
To meet the Bridegroom in the sky
                                F#
From Earth to Heaven reigns the Son
