John 1
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

Worship Suggestion:
The Sound File is Looped.
1. As the song plays the first time (During Verse 1), make remarks about how Jesus came into the world to bring us light and joy. Emphasize that John the Baptist was the witness to the light and prepared the way for Jesus through his ministry in the wilderness. Jesus is the light of the world.  

2. During Verses 2 - 3 of the song, read the scripture found in the book of John 1:1-16. Let the song end.
3. When the song restarts, sing Verses 1-3 together.
4. Prayer and Meditation.

Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
O Thou of God and man the Son,
Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor,
Thou, my soul’s glory, joy and crown.

Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.

Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heaven can boast.

Fairest Lord Jesus
