The Final Word
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You and me we use so very many clumsy words
The noise of what we often say is not worth being heard
When the Father's Wisdom wanted to communicate His love
He spoke it in one final perfect word
He spoke the incarnation and then so was born the Son
His final word was Jesus, He needed no other one
Spoke flesh and blood so He could bleed and make a way Divine
And so was born the baby who would die to make it mine
And so the Father's fondest thought took on flesh and bone
He spoke the living luminous word, at once His will was done
And so the transformation that in man had been unheard
Took place in God the Father as He spoke that final Word
He spoke the Incarnation and then so was born the Son
His final word was Jesus, He needed no other one
Spoke flesh and blood so He could bleed and make a way divine
And so was born the baby who would die to make it mine
And so the Light became alive
And manna became Man
Eternity stepped into time
So we could understand
He spoke the incarnation and then so was born the Son
His final word was Jesus, He needed no other one
Spoke flesh and blood so He could bleed and make a way divine
And so was born the baby who would die to make it mine
