Tune: Herongate
(\'it is a thing most wonderful\')
Philippians 2 v.5 - 11
********
Let this mind be in you because
It also in Christ surely was
Mind of humility, He be
Lowly, though is Son of God, see
He in the form of God being
Here on the earth we Him seeing
He thought it was not robbery
That He equal unto God be
But made Himself of no repute
A plant out of dry ground, a shoot
Took on Himself a servant\'s form
Made in likeness of men, His norm
Being found in fashion as man
He humbled Himself, we too can
Became obedient to death
Until He drew His final breath
Death on the cross, now God has raised
Him from the dead, let Him be praised
He highly exalted o\'er all
The Saviour, we may on Him call
God gave Him the name high above
Every name, and He rules with love
That at the name of Jesus all
Should bow the knee, before Him fall
And that every tongue should confess
Jesus Christ is lord,and Him bless
\'Tis that all to God\'s glory be
He the Father, His acts we see
