Thank you friend. You are very kind. The song you list is beautiful; it conveys the love which God offers to all.

But the following verses trouble me: "When the Father's wisdom wanted to communicate His love, He spoke it in one final perfect Word. He spoke the Incarnation and so was born the Son"

The only-begotten Logos (Word) existed all along (John 1:1), but not in Flesh. The Father did not make Him.

So many a believer drifts into this false notion that God the Father "made" Jesus, because it is somehow easier to "understand," and relate to.

Maybe you could write a better song, kosta. I’d love to hear it if and when you do!
