Analysis of From Beginning to End

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



On the first day God revealed His Son
On the fourth day then He sent Him
On the seventh day He’ll rule the earth
And no one will offend Him

How great the Father’s love for us
He shows us everything
And when we rule with Jesus Christ
The nations all will sing
A thousand years of peace and bliss
Will come upon the earth
And when the last days finally end
The righteous will be first
There’s only one way into heaven
It is through His Son!
The Way has been prepared for men
By God the only One!
