Story Behind The Song
My husband is a Pastor and he challenged me to write a song about John 1.
"The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the beginning
Before the breath of time
You were the center
Silent
Yet alive
Word before the world was framed
Speaking light that carved our names
[Chorus]
Jesus
Word before the world
Christ
The Life in every breath
Wonderful Counselor
Mighty God who conquered death
Everlasting Father
Prince of Peace who never fails
Jesus, Word before the world
[Verse 2]
Child in the straw
Given to our dust
Government of glory
Resting on Your shoulders' trust
Every star You set in place
Now looks down on mercy's face
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
All things through You
All things for You
Every heartbeat
Every sunrise
All things through You
All things for You
In Your presence
All things find life
[instrumental]
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
