	作曲 : McLean
	In the beginning there was nothingness and
	God but waved his hand
	And from the endless void there sprang the beauty of the land
	And high above the canyon walls the diamond stars were new
	And breezes blew from nothingness and herbs and grasses grew
	And silent creatures roamed the
	Earth and multiplied their kind
	And man was but a molecule that
	God had left behind. [Chorus:]
	We have grown we have grown, we have captured the throne
	Of the kingdom
	God made for our winning.
	We have grown we have grown, but our children alone
	Have so little time left for beginning.
	And mountains sprang and chaos rang the overture of life
	And rivers coursed the twisted blade of natures sharpest knife
	And cut beneath the rolling dales a gateway to the sea
	While tidal waves and mighty gales were heard in symphony
	And sunshine fell upon the waves and warmed the virgin land
	And from the mud a drop of blood was left upon the sand. [Chorus:]
	We have grown we have grown, we have captured the throne
	Of the kingdom
	God made for our winning.
	We have grown we have grown, but our children alone
	Have so little time left for beginning.
	And eagles flew from craggy peaks above the garden wall.
	The drop of blood became a man, the tree of life grew tall.
	And perfect in his loneliness, a rib pulled from his chest
	Formed a sweet companion of pulchritude and breast.
	And from the tree of knowledge
	God said they could not eat.
	And perfect was their paradise unto the serpent at their feet. [Chorus:]
	We have grown we have grown, we have captured the throne
	Of the kingdom
	God made for our winning.
	We have grown we have grown, but our children alone
	Have so little time left for beginning.
	Tree of knowledge, tree of death, upon the ground they trod.
	The serpent said your eye's will see and ye will be a god.
	Defy the word and eat the fruit and ye will never die
	And you will chart your destiny and rule the
	Earth and sky.
	And man was banished east of
	Eden. See what we have lost.
	For though the father sets the price, the children pay the cost. [Chorus:]
	We have grown we have grown, we have captured the throne
	Of the kingdom
	God made for our winning.
	We have grown we have grown, but our children alone
	Have so little time left for beginning.
