1 God spoke the word, “Let there be light,
A firmament of lofty height,
A sun and moon, the stars so bright”;
And it was so!

Refrain:
And it was so!
And it was so!
Our God Himself hath spoken,
His word cannot be broken,
And it was so!
Praise God, I know
That it was so!

2 I heard the sweet and joyful sound
That grace at Calv’ry did abound;
I came with all my sins and found
That it was so! [Refrain]

3 Then trials I met and temptings sore;
God spoke to me so weak and poor,
“I’ll give thee grace and strength and more”;
And it was so! [Refrain]

4 Some day we’ll see in heaven’s land
The promised joys on ev’ry hand;
We’ll sing as there in awe we stand—
It will be so! [Refrain]
