Across the lands

 

You're the Word of God the Father
From before the world began.
Ev'ry star and ev'ry planet
Has been fashioned by Your hand.
All creation holds together
By the power of Your voice.
Let the skies declare Your glory;
Let the land and seas rejoice!

(CHORUS)
You're the Author of creation;
You're the Lord of ev'ry man;
And Your cry of love rings out across the lands...

 

The Story Behind the Song

 

Hymn for world mission
 

In 2003 we had the opportunity to write a collection of songs on the theme of world mission for the re-release of the excellent mission prayer book "Operation World".

Stuart and I wrote a hymn telling the whole incredible story of the gospel from creation to Christ's birth, life and death, to the day when he will call people from all nations around the world - when from each 'tribe and tongue and nation He will lead sinners home'.

 

Although Stuart and I initially did not use this hymn extensively it has become increasingly popular recently as a hymn celebrating what the gospel story means to the whole world and how it fires us to global mission.
