Though Lord of Heaven, He Stooped to Earth — Don Fortner

(Tune: #46 — O for A Thousand Tongues — CM)

1.    In Jesus’ condescending love,

Glory and grace appear; —

Though rich He left the realms above,

To be a Servant here.

2.    Though Lord of heav’n, He stooped to earth,

To do His Father’s will;

Despised and poor He was from his birth,

Yet Lord of glory still!

3.    Suff’ring and sorrow, toil and pain,

He, as a Servant, bore,

That His elect might live and reign,

With Him forevermore.

4.    He did the work none else could do,

Then He resumed His throne,

Still keeping His designs in view, —

And gath’ring in His own!
