O love, how deep, how broad, how high, How passing thought and fantasy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortal's sake! 2. He sent no angel to our race, Of higher or of lower place, But wore the robe of human frame, And He Himself to this world came. 3. Nor willed He only to appear; His pleasure was to tarry here; And God and Man with man would be The space of thirty years and three. 4. For us baptized, for us He bore His holy fast, and hunger'd sore, For us temptations sharp He knew, For us the Tempter overthrew. 5. For us He preaches and He prays, Would do all things, would try all ways; By words, and signs, and actions, thus Still seeking not Himself, but us. 6. For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in Crown of Thorns arrayed; For us He bore the Cross's death, For us at length gave up His breath. 7. For us He rose from death again, For us He went on high to reign, For us He sent His Spirit here To guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. 8. All honour, laud, and glory be, O Jesu, Virgin-born, to Thee! All glory, as is ever meet, To Father and to Paraclete. Amen. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
