Song 41

“All who see me will be astonished, for I am an alien among you. The Father of truth remembered me. He possessed me from the beginning.

Through his riches and thought in his heart he engendered me. His word is our way. The savior makes us alive and doesn’t forget our souls.

The humbled are exalted in him. The son of the highest one appeared in the Father’s perfection.

Light found daybreak in the word that was earlier his.

The messiah is one known before the foundation of the world. He saves souls in his truth and name. Let us sing to the Lord.

We love him.”

Odes of Solomon
