High Praise (A Celtic Hymn) Lyrics and music by Rebecca J. Huseby
Vs1
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
Cho
Hallelujah, hallelujah
(Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah)
Hallelujah, hallelujah
(Lord of Heaven and earth, Hallelujah)
Vs2
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
Cho

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
Cho
