Down From His Glory

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
What condescension, bringing us redemption
That in the dead of night, not one faint hope in sight
God - gracious, tender - lay aside His splendor
Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul
Oh, 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 fullness dwelleth in Him
Without reluctance, flesh and blood His substance
He took the form of man, revealed the hidden plan
Oh, glorious mystery, sacrifice of Calvary
And now I know Thou art the Great I AM
Oh, 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 fullness dwelleth in Him
The great Creator became my Savior
And all God’s fullness dwelleth in Him
