The Song of John: A Poetic Gospel

Traditional cultures in many parts of the world have displayed a profound appreciation of the need for human beings to understand each other, leaving aside religious partisanship in a search for common understanding of the worldly, the transcendent, and the divine. Poetry and music may build such lasting bridges and provide disparate cultures with forms for public celebration. To promote singing of the gospel, THE SONG OF JOHN retells the gospel story as a poem arranged in stanzas of four lines with lines of four beats and three beats alternating, a form called common meter.
