Philippians 2:6

• [Phi 2:6] Advent Of Our God, The

  The advent of our God Our prayers must now employ, And we must meet Him on His road With hymns of holy joy. The everlasting Son Incarnate deigns to be; Himself a servant’s form puts on To set His people free. Daughter of Zion, rise To meet thy lowly King, Nor let thy faithless heart despise The peace He comes to bring. As Judge, on clouds of light, He soon will come again, And all His scattered saints unite With Him in Heaven to reign. Before the dawning day Let sin’s dark deeds be gone; The old man all be put away, The new man all put on. All glory to the Son Who comes to set us free, With Father, Spirit, ever One, Through all eternity.

• [Phi 2:6] Jesu Hail! O God Most Holy

  Jesu hail! O God most holy, Gentle Lamb, an Infant lowly; Born, great God, a human stranger, Laid within the narrow manger: Refrain Might transcending, weakness blending, Greatness bending from the sky; Love unending, man befriending, God most High, God most High. To enrich my desolation, To redeem me from damnation, Wrapt in swathing bands Thou liest, Thou in want and weakness sighest: Refrain Low abased, where brutes are sleeping, God’s belovèd Son is weeping; Judge supreme, true Godhead sharing, Sinner’s likeness for us wearing! Refrain Jesu, Thine my heart is solely; Draw it, take it to Thee wholly; With Thy sacred fire illume me, Let it inwardly consume me. Refrain Hence let idle fancies vanish, Hence all evil passions banish; Make me like Thyself in meekness, Bind to Thee my human weakness, Refrain

• [Phi 2:6] Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne

  Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown, When Thou camest to earth for me; But in Bethlehem’s home was there found no room For Thy holy nativity. Refrain O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. Heaven’s arches rang when the angels sang, Proclaiming Thy royal degree; But of lowly birth didst Thou come to earth, And in great humility. Refrain The foxes found rest, and the birds their nest In the shade of the forest tree; But Thy couch was the sod, O Thou Son of God, In the deserts of Galilee. Refrain Thou camest, O Lord, with the living Word, That should set Thy people free; But with mocking scorn and with crown of thorn, They bore Thee to Calvary. Refrain When the heav’ns shall ring, and her choirs shall sing, At Thy coming to victory, Let Thy voice call me home, saying “Yet there is room, There is room at My side for thee.” My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus, When Thou comest and callest for me.

• [Phi 2:6] When Jesus Left His Father’s Throne

  When Jesus left His Father’s throne, He chose a humble birth; Like us, unhonored and unknown, He came to dwell on earth. Like Him may we be found below, In wisdom’s path of peace; Like Him in grace and knowledge grow, As years and strength increase. Sweet were His words and kind His look, When mothers round Him pressed; Their infants in His arms He took, And on His bosom blessed. Safe from the world’s alluring harms, Beneath His watchful eye, Thus in the circle of His arms May we forever lie. When Jesus into Zion rode, The children sang around; For joy they plucked the palms and strewed Their garments on the ground. Hosanna our glad voices raise, Hosanna to our King! Should we forget our Savior’s praise, The stones themselves would sing.
