Down from His glory,
everlasting story,
My God and Saviour came,
And Jesus was His name.
Born in a manger,
To His own a stranger
A Man of sorrows,
tears and agony.
O how I love Him! how I adore Him!
My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!
The great Creator became my Saviour,
And all God's fullness dwelleth in Him
What condescension,
Bring us redemption;
That in the dead of night
Not one faint hope in sight,
God, gracious, tender,
Laid aside His splendour,
Stooping to woo, to win,
5to save my soul.
O how I love Him! how I adore Him!
My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!
The great Creator became my Saviour,
And all God's fullness dwelleth in Him
Without reluctance,
Flesh and blood His substance
He took the form of man,
Revealed the hidden plan.
O glorious mystery,
Sacrifice of Calvary,
And now I know
Thou art the great "I Am".
O how I love Him! how I adore Him!
My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!
The great Creator became my Saviour,
And all God's fullness dwelleth in Him
