"The LORD is high above all nations, and His glory above the heavens. Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high, who humbleth Himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; that He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people" (Psalm 113:5-8).
The
Lord is high above all nations;
His
glory is above the skies.
Beyond
our feeble contemplations,
Our
Lord is holy, strong, and wise.
We
lift our eyes again to see
Our
Lord display eternal love,
For
God so loved the world that He
Left
heaven's splendor from above.
There's
no one like the Lord our God
Who
thus was humbled in our place
To
rescue sinners, weak and flawed,
Whom
He would ransom by His grace.
To
raise our souls up from the dust
And
lift us from the dung of sin,
He
did then what He knew he must
To
save the souls that He would win.
He
humbled then Himself for us
To
pay the cost of our salvation.
Is
not our Savior marvelous
Who
plucks our souls from condemnation?
O
Lord our God, our wondrous Savior,
How
great the distance is You span!
To
lift us up with saving favor,
You
humbled then Yourself as Man.
O
Lord, for sinners You were humbled
That
we might thus be justified.
If
not for You, we would have stumbled
In
hopeless darkness when we died.
Lord,
help us now to reach the lost
By
showing them Your love supreme
That
prompted You to pay the cost
For
those You humbly would redeem.
