Lyrics
[Intro - Single Pulsing Synth]
One sentence
One thought
One mind
That holds the lot
[Verse 1]
Before the light
Before the frame
Before a single star had name
A mind was thinking
Whole and still
A thought sustained
By sovereign will
Not built like clockwork
Left to spin
But held like breath
That won't wear thin
The atom and the angel's wing
Both rest inside
The same one thing
[Pre-Chorus]
Not a machine
Not a design
But a thought
In a living mind
[Chorus]
A thought in the mind of God
Sustained by His will
Authored by His purpose
And the covenants hold me still
A thought in the mind of God
Not wound up and left to run
But held by the very hand
That holds the burning sun
[Verse 2]
The filmmaker
Sees every frame
The characters
Don't know His name
They feel the story
Frame by frame
But He has seen
The end the same
The cross was thought
Before the tree
The blood was purposed
Before me
The Lamb was slain
Before the world
Before the first
Dark flag unfurled
[Pre-Chorus]
Not permission
Not a plan B
But the Author
Writing history
[Chorus]
A thought in the mind of God
Sustained by His will
Authored by His purpose
And the covenants hold me still
A thought in the mind of God
Not wound up and left to run
But held by the very hand
That holds the burning sun
[Bridge - Builds, Synths Opening]
And then the Author
Stepped inside
His own story
Lived and died
The mind that held
The universe
Took on flesh
And bore the curse
He rendered glory
Into bone
He walked the frames
He'd always known
He ate the fish
He wore the scars
The Author living
Past the bars
The rendering
Sustained His death
The thought kept thinking
Past His breath
The character died
The Author wrote
The loop held fast
The story spoke
[Final Chorus - Wide, Full, Major Shift]
A thought in the mind of God
That's all I ever was
Not an accident or afterthought
But purposed just because
A thought in the mind of God
Before the world began
Held together not by contracts
But by love's eternal hand
A thought in the mind of God
The sharpest truth I know
Produces not the coldest heart
But the widest arms to show
[Outro - Slow Fade to Single Voice]
One sentence
Thirty chapters
Zero contradictions
Love the answer
Everything that exists
Is a thought in His mind
Sustained by His will
And held
By covenants
Of love
