“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow the” Phil. 2:10
1 In the name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Every tongue confess Him
king of glory now;
‘Tis the Father’s pleasure
We should call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the Mighty Word
2 At His voice, creation
Sprang at once to sight,
All the angel faces
All the hosts of light
Thrones and Dominations,
Stars upon their way,
All the heavenly orders,
In their great array.
3 Humbled for a season,
To receive a name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom He came,
Faithfully He bore it,
Spotless to the last.
Brought it back victorious,
When from death be passed
4 Bore it up triumphant,
With its human light
Through all ranks of creatures,
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead
To the Father’s breast,
Filled it with the glory.
Of that perfect rest.
5 In your hearts enthrone Him;
They let Him subdue
All that is not holy;
All that are not true;
Crown Him as your Captain
In temptation’s hour,
Let His Will enfold you
In its light and power
6 Brothers this Lord Jesus
Shall return again
With His Father’s glory.
With His angel train
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon His brow
And our hearts confess Him
King of glory now
