Intro: 
A5 ___________ E5  (4X) 
 
A5             D5             E5               A5 
You and me we use so very many clumsy words 
   D5         D5    B5               E5 
The noise of what we often say   is not worth being heard 
A5                            D5                E5              A5 
When the Father's wisdom  wanted to     communicate  His Love 
   D5        D5      B5          E5   E5
He spoke it in one final perfect Word____ 
 
Chorus: 
   A5                 B5               A5             E5 
He  spoke the   incarnation,  and then so  was born the son 
   A5                 B5                             E5  E5 
His final Word was Jesus,   He needed no     other one 
      A5                    B5                   A5           E5 
Spoke flesh and blood do He   could bleed    and make a way  divine 
    D5      A5      B5             E5      E5         A5 
And so was born the baby  who would die___ to make it mine 
 
Repeat intro 
 
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 
 
Chorus 
 

A5   E5        E5                                 D5               A5 
              and so the Light  became  alive  and manna became Man 
  D5        A5        B5              D5                   E5    D5 E5 A5 
Eternity stepped   into  time     so we could    understand 
 
Chorus 
 
at the end:  
    D5      A5     B5               D5     E5                    A5  E5 
and so was born the Baby  who would  die_______  to make it mine______ 
 
Repeat  
A5 - E5 
and fade into thought
