Lord You Were Rich Lyrics

Frank Houghton

Verse 1

Lord You were rich beyond all splendour
Yet for love's sake became so poor
Leaving Your throne in glad surrender
Sapphire-paved courts for stable floor
Lord You were rich beyond all splendour
Yet for love's sake became so poor

Verse 2

You are our God beyond all praising
Yet for love's sake became a man
Stooping so low but sinners raising
Heavenwards by Your eternal plan
You are our God beyond all praising
Yet for love's sake became a man

Verse 3

Lord You are love beyond all telling
Saviour and King we worship You
Emmanuel within us dwelling
Make us and keep us pure and true
Lord You are love beyond all telling
Saviour and King we worship You
