God the Son incarnate, all creation sings
Through you was created all things
Visible and invisible in heaven and on earth
Things of ignoble and noble worth
Though you are God’s very form
From eternity past ere you were born
You did not grasp equality
Instead you made yourself empty
Radiance of God’s glory come to Earth
Made like men in a humble birth
a servant’s nature you acquired
Took on that form as was required
In obedience you came
To take our sin and bear the shame
When your obedience required death
You gave up your very breath
Forever exalted in glory
You attained for us new majesty
The name above all names is yours
Your kingdom evermore endures
So at that name all knees shall bow
In heaven and earth one day and now
And every tongue will then confess
That you are the Lord of Righteousness
For according to the triune plan
You now sit down at God’s right hand
There with the majesty on high
Our Lord of Lords shall never die
And so you ever intercede
You advocate and our case you plead
Great high priest and sovereign king
You are sovereign over everything.
