Lover of the Lowly

Lover of the lowly, mighty, wise and holy

You regard the humble and bring low the proud

Let our speech and anger come Slowly

A humble and contrite heart you’ll not cast out

Lover of the lowly we cling to you solely

All we are and ever hope to be

Is bound up in you as you possess us wholly

There is nothing we can do to be holy

Though Christ was rich He became poor

So that we in His poverty 

Might become rich and prosperous

Se we know our  God is for us

To the praise of His glory

Open our eyes that we may see!

Lover of the humble, hold us as we stumble

We are never greater than when we bow our knee

Rebuke us when we’re haughty, Convict us when we grumble

Take away our pride and set us captives free

Though Christ was rich He became poor

So that we in His poverty 

Might become rich and prosperous

So we know our  God is for us

To the praise of His glory

Open our eyes that we may see!
