In the beginning, there was a word, a light
Sent from above, to guide us through the night
Prophets and sages, they spoke of truth and grace
But none compared to the one who would change the human race
For he was not just a messenger, a preacher or a seer
He was the very Word of God, the one we hold so dear
He came to show us love, to lead us from the dark
To bring us hope and salvation, to ignite in us a spark
So let us not diminish him, and make him just the same
As all the other prophets, who bore his holy name
For Jesus Christ is different, he is the Word made flesh
And in his light and truth, our hearts and souls are blessed.
So let us bear witness to the light, and spread his love and grace
For Jesus Christ is the savior, the one we must embrace
He is the Word of God, the light that shines so bright
And in him, we find our purpose, our hope, and our delight. (\"The Word\") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
