Let This Mind (Phil. 2:5-13)

21 October 2011 by David Regier




Let this mind be among us now
Which was found in Christ Jesus
Who although in very nature God
Did not count equality with God
As a thing to be held, but denied Himself
As a servant He became a man

Being found in the form of man
Jesus bowed in obedience
He lay down His very life for us
Even died on the cross for us
Therefore God raised Him up
And exalted Him
As the name far above all names

That ev’ry knee should bow at His holy name
In the heavens, the earth and the grave
And ev’ry tongue confess that Jesus is Lord
To the glory of our Father’s name
To the glory of our God

So now, as beloved sons
Let us walk in obedience
As we labor forth in reverent fear
Toward salvation, which is drawing near
For our God is at work
Both to will and act
In our lives to His glorious praise

That ev’ry knee should bow at His holy name
In the heavens, the earth and the grave
And ev’ry tongue confess that Jesus is Lord
To the glory of our Father’s name
To the glory of our God
