Firmament

And God said,

Let there be lights

In the firmament

Of the heaven.

Let there be lights in heaven to divide the day from the night;

And let them be for signs, for seasons and for days (and years);

And let them be for lights up there in the firmament

To give light upon the earth.

And it was so, and God made two, two great lights;

The greater light to rule the day,

And the lesser light to rule the night; the stars as well.

And God set them in the firmament

To give light upon the earth.

And to rule, to rule over the day and over the night

To divide darkness from the light.

Let there be

A firmament

In the midst

Of the waters.

(repeated)

And God said, let the waters bring forth, abundantly,

The moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly

Above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

...Or so do some people believe.

Above the earth in the open firmament

And to rule, to rule over the day and over the night

To divide darkness from the light.

Let there be

A firmament

In the midst

Of the waters.

(repeated)
