Philippians 2 Hymn

Philippians 2:5-11 “Humbled and Exalted”

Tune: Ode to Joy/ #122 Trinity Hymnal

Christ Jesus, who in nature God, did not count equality;

With our God a thing to be grasped, but made of himself nothing,

Like a servant, made in likeness of a man in human form,

Humbled himself in o-be-dience for our sake in his dying.

Hum-bl-ing himself to death on a cross. God exalted Him.

God bestowed the name that is above every name upon him,

So that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow to him,

Those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, confessing Him.

Every tongue confessing that Jesus Christ is the Lord on high,

To the glory of Fa-ther God. Hence the loved obey him all.

Working out our own salvation with great fear and trembling

For our God is working in us, both his pleasure and his will.
