Song: Difference Between a Young Earth Creation and an Old Earth Evolution Scientist

[verse1]
In matters of the Earth and life's long start,
Two different stories stand a world apart.
One finds its measure in a youthful plan,
The other views a more extensive stan.

Both seek the truth, using the mind's great sight,
But view the evidence in a different light.
One holds God's Word as the primary lens,
The other lets evolution guide the ends.

[verse2]
The Young Earth Creation Scientist reads a page,
That sets the world upon a six-day stage.
With genealogies precise and linear thread,
A few short thousand years are countenanced.

They see the strata and the canyon deep,
As floods' swift work, not time's slow, patient sleep.
The fossil record, a snapshot of that flood,
In sudden death beneath the rushing mud.

[bridge]
The texts they cherish offer clear design,
From a Creator's hand, in every line.

[verse3]
The Old Earth Evolutionist takes the view,
Of eons, epochs, and a slow, grand "new."
They look to physics, geology's wide scope,
And see deep time as science's truest hope.

The rock layers tell them of ages long ago,
Of continental drift, and seas that ebb and flow.
Radioactive clocks confirm the span,
Of billions of years since the start began.

[bridge]
Life, in this view, adapted, branched, and grew,
Through natural selection, old forms yielding new.

[chorus]
One sees swift genesis, a youthful bloom,
The other, change across a boundless room.
Both scientists have the same evidence.
Interpret differently, to make all sense.
