Down from His glory

1
Down from His glory,
  Ever living story,
My God and Savior 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 Savior,
  And all God’s fulness dwelleth in Him.
2
What condescension,
  Bringing us redemption;
That in the dead of night,
  Not one faint hope in sight,
God, gracious, tender,
  Laid aside His splendor,
Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul.
3
Without reluctance,
  Flesh and blood His substance
He took the form of man,
  Revealed the hidden plan.
O glorious myst’ry,
  Sacrifice of Calv’ry,
And now I know Thou art the great “I AM.”

"Without reluctance,

Flesh and blood His substance

He took the form of man,

Revealed the hidden plan.

O glorious myst’ry,

Sacrifice of Calv’ry,

And now I know Thou art the great “I AM.”

Once Satan touched man, God stepped in to act... and this is according to God's sovereignty!

I just have to praise the Lord for the process He went through of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, He became the Spirit and ascended as a Man! Now as the Spirit (2 Cor. 15:45b) He lives in us (Col. 1:27) spreading and making His home in all our hearts (Eph. 3:17) in order to build us up together to be His corporate dwelling place (Eph. 2:22) for His satisfaction and rest for all eternity (Rev. 21:2). "O how I love Him..."

This sounds a lot like "It's Now or Never" which was a pop song a few decades ago.

When I listen to this hyms, I desire to be with the Lord. I long to be with Him just to be in His presence. Father I thank for sacrificing Your only Son Just for me a sinner.

Although, my outward environment is currently consuming my outward man, I'm so, so refreshed by this song. All my situations go away when I consider how the Great Creator stepped out of glory to suffer in order to save us and bring us into His Glory.
