Lowly You Descended, Born to Save Us All

words: Gary Hicks © 2010 Gary L. Hicks
music: French folk tune 
AU CLARE DE LA LUNE (6.5.6.5.D.)

1. Lowly You descended,
Born to save us all;
From the throne of heaven
To a cattle stall;
Laid aside Your glory,
Heard the Father’s call;
Lowly You descended,
Born to save us all.

2. Flesh and blood among us
You became a man;
Mary’s baby Jesus,
Heav’n’s audacious plan;
Wise men came to worship,
Shepherds held Your hand;
Flesh and blood among us
You became a man.

3. How can we repay You?
Who can count the cost?
Up the road to suffer
Shame and lonely loss;
Bearing all my sin, and
Dying on a cross;
How can we repay You?
Who can count the cost?
