So the Word became human and made his home among us. 

He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. 

And we have seen his glory, 

the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.

From his abundance 

we have all received one gracious blessing after another.

For the law was given through Moses, 

but God’s unfailing love and faithfulness 

came through Jesus Christ. 

John 1:14, 16-17
