Name him after his father
they said in the Temple,
but a name sent by an angel
from the heavens prevailed.
John would be his name.
Call him prophet or messiah
they said at the river,
but one who lived before
had already given the name,
the voice in the wilderness.
"Great among those born of women"
said Jesus outside of Nain,
first known as childhood playmate,
later faithful servant,
messenger of God.
(Luke 1:59-63, John 1:19-23, Luke 7:28)
