I have come
With a love far stronger than death;
I do not have truth with me,
For I am Truth;
I am the one who made your breath,
And I have healing’s balm in My hands;

I speak with authority
Of things so hard to grasp;
Things so hard to live;
It is the authority, though,
To make things exist
Where there was nothing;

With a word,
I rebuke the gale,
And make the darkness flee;

Time has no tyranny over me;
With truth I redeem it;
In wisdom I use it;
It is not a power to me,
But a tool;

I need nothing,
For I am the source of life;
The agent of it;

I have a love that is Truth,
For that My heart can be broken;
It was once, many years ago,
And I died;
Yet My death made a spectacle
Of the darkness;

But as said before,
“I have come
With a love far stronger than death;”
And I’m here again to stay.


"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it."--John 1:1-5
