Intro

     

Verse 1

I watched a little butterfly
Come dancing through the air,
And wondered how such beauty
Could ever start somewhere.
From a tiny crawling creature
To wings that take to flight,
God had a plan before it knew
It'd ever see the light.

Chorus

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hear creation sing,
God blows breath in every living thing.
From the butterfly that spreads its wings
To a newborn baby's cry,
His hand is there in everything,
On the earth and in the sky.
Every heartbeat, every wing,
Every night and every day,
Nothing here was made by chance—
God planned it all that way.

Instrumental Break

     
     
Banjo or fiddle takes the break

Verse 2

A little life begins so small,
Before our eyes can see,
But God already knows that child
And who that child will be.
He forms the hands, He forms the feet,
And sets that heart to beat,
Just like He paints the butterfly
And sends it on the breeze.

Chorus

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hear creation sing,
God blows breath in every living thing.
From the butterfly that spreads its wings
To a newborn baby's cry,
His hand is there in everything,
On the earth and in the sky.
Every heartbeat, every wing,
Every night and every day,
Nothing here was made by chance—
God planned it all that way.

Verse 3

So when I see that butterfly
Go floating through the blue,
I think about the hands of God
And all that He can do.
From the smallest seed beneath the ground
To the tallest mountain spring,
There's a little piece of heaven
In every living thing.

Chorus

(Three-Part Harmony)
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hear creation sing,
God blows breath in every living thing.
From the butterfly that spreads its wings
To a newborn baby's cry,
His hand is there in everything,
On the earth and in the sky.
Every heartbeat, every wing,
Every night and every day,
Nothing here was made by chance—
God planned it all that way.

Outro

(Slow It Down)
Hmm... hmm... hmm...
God blows breath in every living thing...
Nothing here was made by chance—
God planned it all that way.
