Unsullied blaze of glory! O ever-radiant Face! Thy rich, unfathomed story Transfigures us in grace! Made like Thee, soon, completely, With love-lit eyes we’ll scan God’s face unveiled so sweetly In Thine, Thou Son of man!
What our Lord wants is very meaningful because man’s affection is a function which is very difficult to control. Unless the believer hands over this affection to the cross and is willing to lose it in death, he will be greatly hindered in the spiritual life. Since human affairs often change, human affection is also influenced. When the faculty of affection is stimulated, the whole being of the believer very easily loses its spiritual normality. A believer who is soulish in this part will often be disturbed and lose the peace in his spirit. Sorrow, grief, lament, and tears are the usual results of affection. If the Lord cannot have the first place in the matter of affection, it is hard for Him to take charge in other things. This is a test of spirituality as well as a measure of its degree. Therefore, we should hate our own life and not let it have any opportunity for free activity in exercising human love. The Lord’s demand and our natural intention are completely opposite. What we love we must now hate. Not only must we hate what we love, but we must also hate that faculty from which the love issues, that is, our soul-life. This then is the way toward spirituality. If we truly take up the cross in such a way, it will prevent the soulish affection from controlling and influencing the spirit and will enable us to love others by the power of the Holy Spirit. This is precisely how the Lord Jesus treated His family when He was on the earth.

CWWN, vol. 12
Chapter 4 (LSM)
Revelation 4:9 says that the living creatures “give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits upon the throne, to Him who lives forever and ever. ” Revelation 5:13 says, “And every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying: To Him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb, be the blessing and the honor and the glory and the might forever and ever. ” These verses from Revelation indicate that honor is another attribute of God. Whereas glory—God Himself expressed—refers to a condition, honor refers to a high position, in particular to the dignity that is related to such a position.
GG. MAJESTY
Another attribute of God is majesty. Jude 25 says, “To the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, might, and authority before all time, and now, and unto all eternity. Amen. ” Here majesty denotes greatness in honor. The fact that God has the attribute of majesty indicates that He is the greatest One with His dignity. We may also say that majesty is the totality of glory and honor. Because God has glory and honor, He also has majesty.
HH. SOVEREIGNTY
God not only has glory, honor, and majesty; He also has sovereignty. Sovereignty is also one of God’s attributes. He is sovereign. Sovereignty indicates God’s unlimited authority and power. God’s position is also unlimited. We are not able to say how high is God’s position. Likewise, we cannot measure God’s glory and majesty. As the sovereign One, there is no limit to His authority, power, and position.
I agree with Rebecca about this tune. The words are so deep and meaningful. I praise the Lord for His humanity! "There Manhood, all perfection, and Godhead-fullness shine. God's love and Man's affection, the human and divine." I sang it to hymn #42... much better.
