Lyrics

Verse 1
In the beginning was the Word, eternal with the Lord,
With God He dwelt, His glory shone, by angels all adored.
Through Him all things were made to be, creation’s mighty frame,
The Word divine, the Son of God, forevermore the same.
Chorus
In the beginning was the Word, the Light that shine-eth free,
The Savior came to dwell with men, His glory we did see!
His life, His love, the darkness flees, His truth shall never fall,
Hallelujah, praise His Name, the Word is Lord of all!
Verse 2
The Word became sweet flesh and dwelt among us here below,
His grace and truth, like rivers, flowed, salvation’s hope to show.
The Light of life, He pierced the night, though some His call denied,
Yet all who trust His holy Name in Him shall ever abide.
Chorus
In the beginning was the Word, the Light that shine-eth free,
The Savior came to dwell with men, His glory we did see!
His life, His love, the darkness flees, His truth shall never fall,
Hallelujah, praise His Name, the Word is Lord of all!
Bridge
Before the stars were set in place, His voice did all command!
The Lamb of God, the King of grace, upholds us by His hand!
Oh, worship Him, the Word divine, His majesty proclaim!
Chorus
In the beginning was the Word, the Light that shine-eth free,
The Savior came to dwell with men, His glory we did see!
His life, His love, the darkness flees, His truth shall never fall,
Hallelujah, praise His Name, the Word is Lord of all!
Outro
The Word, the Word… eternal Light divine!
Hallelujah, praise His Name… forever He shall shine!
