He Left Heaven

My soul is stilled in silent wonder;
I contemplate amazing grace;
My spirit worships as I ponder;
He left Heaven for our sakes!!
Great love beyond my understanding,
Such mercy shown to evil men,
In bondage bound to sin unending:
By grace, we can be free in Him!!

That He should leave His Father's presence,
And condescend to live on earth;
Down here, He took on Him my sentence;
For my soul's sake He went to death!!
Christ, Who abode in Heaven's portals,
Surrounded by angelic praise,
Descended to the form of mortals;
To save our souls, He chose the grave!!

Let every mouth be stopped before Him,
And every soul bow to the dust,
Let all men worship and adore Him,
Who, on the cross gave all for us:
The perfect work of God, completed
By His Son, Lord Jesus Christ,
And every foe by Him defeated;
In Him we have eternal life.

Should this not cause our hearts to praise Him?
And overflow our mouths with song?
His poured out life, His grace amazing,
The One in Whom was found no wrong.
Oh mystery of God's great wisdom!
Oh marvel of such splendid deeds!
We sinners, saved into His kingdom,
Forever, by His Spirit, sealed!!
