John 1

The Life-Light

1,2 The Word was first,

the Word present to God,

God present to the Word.

The Word was God,

in readiness for God from day one.

14 The Word became flesh and blood,

and moved into the neighborhood.

We saw the glory with our own eyes,

the one-of-a-kind glory,

like Father, like Son,

Generous inside and out,

true from start to finish.
