Verse 1
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word was with God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.
Chorus 1
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who cre ated heav'n and earth.
Verse 2
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word Himself was God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.
Chorus 2
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!
Bridge
To all who will receive the Word,
To those believing in His Name,
He empowers to be sons of God
Chorus
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who created heav'n and earth.
Chorus
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!
Ending
In the beginning was the Word,
Now He dwells within my heart.
