Read John 1:10-18
Word of Heaven, Word of Earth,
Word of Life, and Light, and Birth.
Word made flesh, a baby child,
Word in a manger, meek and mild.
Spoken Word, they would not hear;
Word of love, they chose to fear.
Word made known, they would not see;
Word of Peace, bound for a tree.
Word with Father, Word the Son;
Holy Spirit, Three in One.
Word today and ancient story;
We beseech, reveal your glory.
Word of Grace, Word of Truth;
Word of elders, Word of youth.
Grant us grace to hallow you;
Give us strength to follow you.
Word of creation, Word of perfection;
Word of death, of resurrection.
Grant today that we might be,
The means by which the world will see.
Jeff Taylor
