Word In The Beginning

[Intro]
In the beginning was the Word
You can read it, you can feel every verse
John speaking on the truth, let it work
Turn the page, let the light break the curse (yeah)
[Verse 1]
"In the beginning was the Word"
That’s John chapter 1, first third
"And the Word was with God," that’s facts
"And the Word was God," all caps
He made all things, that’s design
Light in the dark, that’s divine
"The light shineth in darkness," see it?
"And the darkness comprehended it not," they don’t see it
He came to His own, they turned away
But to all that receive, new day
"Power to become" that child
You adopted, that’s sealed, not mild
Not of blood, not flesh, not will
But of God, that birth so real
Grace and truth in the only Son
Verse 14—yeah, that’s the One
[Chorus]
Let that Gospel of John speak life
Red letters cut deep like a knife (woo)
From the well to the grave to the sky
"Jesus wept," "Jesus saves," that’s why
From the first to the last, He the vine
Hold fast to the branch, stay aligned
Every word, every line, read it loud
Gospel of John, make a faith-filled sound (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Chapter 3, late night, one-on-one
Nicodemus in the dark tryna run
"Except a man be born again"
He confused, but the Lord explain
"Born of water and the Spirit," new heart
You can’t buy that, it’s a fresh start
"For God so loved the world"—that’s grace
"That He gave His only begotten" in your place
"Whosoever believeth" can live
Everlasting, that’s the gift He give
Not to condemn, but to save
Pulled us up out the guilt and the grave
Then John 4, at the well, hot sun
Broken woman tryna hide, on the run
"I that speak unto thee am He"
Living water in the middle of her misery
[Chorus]
Let that Gospel of John speak life
Red letters cut deep like a knife (yeah)
From the well to the grave to the sky
"Jesus wept," "Jesus saves," that’s why
From the first to the last, He the vine
Hold fast to the branch, stay aligned
Every word, every line, read it loud
Gospel of John, make a faith-filled sound
[Bridge]
"I am the bread of life," He said
Feed your soul, not just flesh and bread
"I am the light of the world," that flame
Walk with Him, you won’t stay the same
"I am the door," that narrow frame
"I am the good shepherd," call your name
"I am the resurrection, and the life"
Death fall back when He step in sight (woah)
"I am the way, the truth, the life"
John 14:6 cut strife
No one comes to the Father but through
Every word that He spoke stay true
[Verse 3]
Shortest verse, but it hit so hard
"Jesus wept"—that’s the heart of God
Outside tomb in chapter 11
Tears on His face, eyes on heaven
"Lazarus, come forth"—stone roll
Dead man walking, that’s control
Then that upper room, feet washed
Servant King, no pride, no gloss
"Greater love hath no man"—He knew
Lay down life for the crew
On the cross, last breath, "It is finished"
Every chain, every shame diminished
Third day, garden scene, stone gone
Mary cry till she hears her name called
"These are written, that ye might believe"
John 20:31, that’s the key
[Chorus]
Let that Gospel of John speak life
Red letters cut deep like a knife
From the well to the grave to the sky
"Jesus wept," "Jesus saves," that’s why (oh yeah)
From the first to the last, He the vine
Hold fast to the branch, stay aligned
Every word, every line, read it loud
Gospel of John, make a

rap, Boom-bap gospel rap, mid-tempo with warm vinyl crackle and choir stabs on the hook; male vocals ride a head-nod groove, verses tight and scripture-heavy, 808 undercurrent thick. Chorus widens with stacked harmonies and call-and-response ad-libs; subtle organ and bass guitar glue everything, leaving space for clear, sermon-like bars.
