1 God's presence was seen in the person of Jesus
where people found healing and wholeness and grac
miraculous wonders and love without measure,
the touch of his hands and the look of his face.
2 So this was the answer when John asked the question,
was Jesus Messiah, God's chosen, the one
ordained to bring peace and God's reign to the people,
embodying hope for the days yet to come.
3 The signs of God's being are seen in the present
when people are living with Jesus in faith.
The hope of God's kingdom is real when our actions
embody Christ's loving with freedom through grace.
