In the Beginning Songtext
von Harry Belafonte

In the beginning, there was heaven and earth
The heavens were high and the earth was green
And there was day, and there was night
And the length of hours stretched between


In the beginning, though, the world was my own
I sorrowed for something I knew not of
But God was kind
And with careful hands, he brought me love

But God was kind
And with careful hands, he brought me you
