Down from His Glory

Down From His Glory

CHORUS: O how I love Him! How I adore Him!

My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!

The great Creator became my Savior,

  And all God’s fulness dwelleth in Him.

 

Verse 1: Down from His glory,  Ever living story,

My God and Savior came,  And Jesus was His name.

Born in a manger,  To His own a stranger,

A Man of sorrows, tears and agony.

 

Verse 2: What condescension,  Bringing us redemption;

That in the dead of night,  Not one faint hope in sight,

God, gracious, tender,  Laid aside His splendor,

Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul.

 

Verse 3: Without reluctance,   Flesh and blood His substance

He took the form of man,  Revealed the hidden plan.

O glorious myst’ry,  Sacrifice of Calv’ry,

And now I know Thou art the great “I AM.”
