Verse 1
Down from His glory,
Everliving 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.
Chorus
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.
Verse 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.
Chorus
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.
Verse 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.”
Chorus
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.
