“Creation’s seventh sunriseWe stand before the burning bush of timeThe six days were goodBut the seventh He called holyCreation’s seventh sunriseWe wake and go to work six days a weekTo struggle with the strain and stressBut the Lords’ provided for the care of our soulsA day of rejoice and restCreation’s seventh sunriseWe stand before the burning bush of timeThe six days were goodBut the seventh He called holyCreation’s seventh sunriseCome see a sanctuary made of timeCome speak forgotten words of prayerIt calls us, “Come away from your dissonant days” “Come out and breathe the garden air.” (leave your worries there) Creation’s seventh sunriseWe stand before the burning bush of timeThe six days were goodBut the seventh He called holyCreation’s seventh sunriseAnd the promise of that rest still standsTo all who would be freeAnd though we might be bound by timeWe can taste Eternity”

“We are God's representatives on earth. We are God's glory, displaying his likeness. After each day of creation God declares what he has made to be 'good'. But only after the 6th day God's verdict on a world that now includes humanity is 'very good'. God's work wasn't finished until there was something in the world to reflect his glory in the world. We often excuse our actions by saying, 'I'm only human.' There is nothing 'only' about being human: we're truly human as we reflect God's glory.”
