BEHOLD AMONG MEN — Lyrics
About BEHOLD AMONG MEN
The song "Behold Among Men" draws its core message directly from the Book of Revelation, announcing that God's dwelling place is now with humanity. The antiphon sets a majestic, declarative tone that grounds the congregation in the reality of the Church as God's home on earth.
The verses unfold like a litany of what it means to be the Church. We sing of being called by prophets, built by martyrs, born in the waters of the Spirit, and nourished by the body of the Lord. Each verse builds a picture of a people gathered and grafted onto Christ the Vine, culminating in the powerful, repeating phrase, "the Church of Christ the Lord!"
In the choir loft, this piece is especially fitting for Pentecost or any celebration focusing on the mystery of the Church. The steady progression of the verses allows the choir to lead the assembly through a deep reflection on our shared identity, moving from darkness into light as a royal and holy people.
