"In the beginning was the Word,"
This is the gospel of our Lord;
Jesus the Christ, God's own dear Son,
Eternal uncreated One.
Came down to earth in form of man,
Fulfilling God's salvation plan,
To save us, to save us from our sin,
To save us, to save us from our sin.
With God from all eternity,
Dwelling in perfect unity;
His garments— robes of brightest light,
His Father's prime and pure delight,
He came in deep humility,
Assumed a full humanity,
To save us, to save us from our sin,
To save us, to save us from our sin.
The fulness of His grace bestows
What legal serving never knows;
Declares to us the unseen God,
Redeems us to Him by His blood.
The record of God's Word is plain,
"Behold the Lamb" for sinners slain,
Who saves us, Who saves us from our sin,
Who saves us, Who saves us from our sin.
