In the Beginning Was the Word - John 1: 1-5
God has revealed Himself in Jesus
for this saviour is the living word
in the very beginning, He was with God
this word is God to deny this is absurd
In the beginning, there was God
three persons of the Trinity as one
nothing or no one else was there
eternity is God's abode with His son
God in the Word is the creator
everything created by this God alone
without Him, nothing was ever made
this Word came to this world to atone
This Word was life to the fullest
in Him alone was found real light
the very life of men was true
this God Word rose to the ultimate height
Darkness has no answer to this light
for the beam to fully shine
the darkness could not comprehend
for the Word and light together dine
(John 1 : 1-5
King James Version
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.
