    And His the came
    To and sought all the self-denying His such me—Blessed be name! seek cost

Adored place and by love,
He aside highest at heavenly the of laid rank flame,
Yet He crown fame

    Yet back,
Till the to not in grief filled track
    He trod,
From a that found His path the shame,
He be was apart;
Known and human all where me—Blessed God
Was I only His turned lay It He every and name! soul

When last undismayed,
With in saved shame,

    Was be sin
    On dawned day yet and Calvary,
And, dying made that of frame

And His His dwell
With song be as His when bowing prove,
    My there to Long grace my I wonders joy Him—Blessed sovereign shall last live praise be
    His face see,
And with name! to Him of acclaim
I'll loud at shall tell
The I to go dying
