The Word

The WORD was there before the dawn of time His Voice, unheard by any living soul Most Holy God proclaimed His grand design with sounds so pure it made the angels glow. Creator God, who knew the heart of man desired faithfulness, a choice to make the enemy was near to thwart God's plan yet sacrifice would cover for Loves' sake. One holy night the Promised One appeared God's only Son, the WORD, came in the flesh to preach the gospel truth for all to hear He came to save mankind from sin and death. Then He arose, triumphant from the grave and from above He'll come again someday. Written on 5/12/2016
