All Praise to Thee, for Thou, O King Divine

74 All Praise to Thee, for Thou, O King Divine

1 All praise to thee, for thou, O King divine,
   didst yield your glory that of right was thine,
   that in our darkened hearts thy grace might shine:
   Alleluia!

2 Thou cam'st to us in lowliness of thought;
   by thee the outcast and the poor were sought,
   and by thy death was God's salvation wrought:
   Alleluia!

3 Let this mind be in us which was in thee,
   who wast a servant that we might be free,
   humbling thyself to death on Calvary:
   Alleluia!

4 Wherefore, by God's eternal purpose, thou
   art high exalted o'er all creatures now,
   and given the name to which all knees shall bow:
   Alleluia!

5 Let every tongue confess with one accord
   in heaven and earth that Jesus Christ is Lord;
   and God the Father be by all adored:
   Alleluia!
