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

We love the HYMN UNCLE STEVE and the VIDEO very peaceful ! Phillipians 2 and awesome LOVE POEM to the HUMILITY of Our lord & Saviour JESUS CHRIST. It is amazing to come to the other side of the WORLD (NZ) and to find that the KIWIS & MAORIS worship GOD & His Son Jesus Christ with the same (and even more !) fervour that we do. The same is true of SPAIN & MEXICO etc. The more we travel & worship the more we are convinced that JESUS is the only Saviour of the WORLD : AMEN. Thanks again for lifting us all up Spiritually : AMEN
Blessimg & Easter Joy for YOU & FIDO !
