The Word of life existed,
From the very beginning;
Pursuing and persisted,
Survival while living.
We have seen and we have heard,
We have touched and have observed;
Life was revealed through the Word,
For prosperity preserved.
We have seen to testify,
So we report it to you;
Knowing we cannot deny,
For everything is true.
Because of eternal life,
Through the Father is revealed;
That we must cope with the strife,
With faith and hope as a shield.
This is life we have heard and seen,
To launch a relationship;
That we all should have foreseen,
So sin does not make us slip.
Relationship with the Son,
For God as our Father;
Jesus the Anointed One,
Proclaimed as our Brother.
God is light, no darkness near,
Yet we still live in the dark;
While we lie, not sincere,
No trueness where we embark.
But if we live in the light,
As God does in the same way;
We would everything right,
Never in going astray.
Because the blood of His Son,
Cleans us of every sin;
And forgiveness has begun,
A new life will then begin.
For God is faithful and just,
Will free us if we confess;
Turning us away from lust,
Who then is able to bless.
