"...light in the beginning..."



   *

The Chosen (clip of video)

light 

in the beginning


The first flash of light in the beginning 

Morning came for the first time,

Light came for the first time

Darkness gave way and light was

Breathing, living, light as first breaths at birth, 

Breath filled all things *



The first day and Joy came to the world, creation wakes

The Word before time was measured 

The Voice, The Light, gave order to chaos 

“Light blazing through our deepest, dark, depths

God spoke light, The true light” *



Pure light, not lessoned by life’s trials 

Not dimmed by sin, nor the world’s ways that overshadow. 

Love that was before time and came to us, a child born this day

Eternal love and life he gave 

Cold winter night, warmed by the light of life



Recall the joy in the fields 

Shepherds’ darkness now glorious light

Singing glory to God in the highest 

A new song, new reality, a sign wrapped in a blanket, a Son given

Worthy, blessing, and honor, glory, Peace, Amen. Amen. *



Our life has seen signs and wonders 

The dark has been made light 

Savior born on Christmas, 

Lifted high to top the "tree", the cross, the ‘finial d’arbre

Love to us in desperate times, "treasured in our hearts"

We pass this love to others for the same hope, same light, and life eternal 



You have seen, heard, and touched the Word, the Voice, 

the One, who had no beginning, 

Jesus, God with us, Immanuel living alongside us

The Angel messenger spoke “Greetings!”

Speaking to a woman, Mary, about The Savior, the Son of God

News of great joy!

The impossible is possible with God



Before time, to the manger, to the tree, to the center of the throne 

The Lamb, worthy

 the scroll, news of life and great joy

 around the throne, a new song age to age


Thousands of Messengers (with a great voice): Worthy is the Lamb who was slain.

Worthy is the Lamb to receive authority and wealth and wisdom and greatness

And honor and glory and praise.”*


“Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and beneath the earth and in the sea and all things in them echoing the messengers. *


Every Creature: To the One who sits on the throne and to the Lamb

Be blessing and honor and glory and power 

Throughout the ages.” *

Always been God


As my knees touch the ground in the morning
May new mercies awaken my soul
For Your grace can rewrite any story
And that grace every day writes my own
Faithful You've been
Faithful You are
You never fail to complete what You start
You've always been good
Always been kind
You've never let go
You've always been God
When the walls 'round my heart won't surrender
I will pray my way around Jericho
And from season to season I'm singing
For I know Him in whom I have hope
Faithful You've been
Faithful You are
You never fail to complete what You start
You've always been good
Always been kind
You've never let go
You've always been God
You've always been God
This is my pursuit (this is my pursuit)
Daily trusting You (daily trusting You)
Every step in surrender (oh-oh-oh)
Live to serve You Lord
Live to know You more (oh-oh-oh)
Live to love You forever (oh-oh-oh)
This is my pursuit
Daily trusting You (daily trusting You)
Every step in surrender (oh-oh-oh)
Live to serve You Lord
Live to know You more
Live to love You forever
And evermore
Faithful You've been
Faithful You are
You never fail to complete what You start
You've always been good
Always been kind
You've never let go
You've always been God
