The Word

Moses chiselled words from stone
At God's command,
To guide His peoples' journey
To Canaan Land.

Prophets uttered many words
Down through the years,
Expressing anger or rebuke
Sometimes with tears.

The greatest proclamation
Our God has made
His Son, as human baby,
In Manger laid.

This Word His love announces
In tones so clear –
Almighty God, encapsulated –
To man draws near.

The Birth, The Death, The Rising
Of our Blessed Lord –
God's ultimate expression –
Jesus – The Word!
