This is the record of John
When the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him: ‘Who art thou?’
And he confessed and denied not; and said plainly: ‘I am not the Christ.’

And they asked him: ‘What art thou then? Art thou Elias?’ And he said: ‘I am not.’
‘Art thou the prophet?’ And he answered:’No.’

Then said they unto him:’What art thou? That we may give an answer unto them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?’ And he said: ‘I am the voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord.’

Words: John 1 : 19 - 23
Music: Orlando Gibbons 1583 - 1
