In the Beginning

In the beginning was the Word

And the Word was with God

And the Word was God

In the beginning

Through God all things came into being

Without God nothing came to be

And all find life in God

Yes, from the beginning

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

Hey!

The Word became a human being

Yes, the Word was made flesh

And He made His home with us

Living among us

We have seen the light of His glory

As the Father's only Son

Full of grace and truth

From the beginning

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

In solidarity and love

We lift high the gift of life

Through the darkness and the light

As in the beginning

Let every nation hear the call

To serve and sacrifice

To live and share the light

From the beginning

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

And the Light shines on

Oh, the Light shines on

And the darkness will never overcome

Hey!
