Abstract

My Lord, my God,
You are the Word, Eternal and Ineffable,
You created the world, the earth and the Heavens,
The whole universe (In. 1:3),
As your own dwelling place.
Not one thing was made without you (In. 1:3),
You made them all for you,
For all of us, your own image in Human flesh (Gen. 1:26)
In the fullness of time, you became a human being,
And full of grace and truth, lived among us (In. 1:14)
