Christ the Word Became Flesh - John 1: 1-14

There He was in the beginning the living word being divine for He was with God at the start in creation everything was fine In this word indeed was life despite the darkness shined His light sending forth His servant John bearing witness of light to banish night This enlightener was coming forth who was here but we did not know even all we have this word had made not willingly received Him despite His show For He came to His own people and they refused Him their true Lord but those that did believe upon Him were drawn by His divine cord This came to be by God's will as the word showed forth His glory this Christ was full of grace and truth as God's son displayed the gospel story (1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.) John 1:1-14
