Thou Wast Rich

Verse 1

Thou who wast rich beyond all splendour
All for love's sake becamest poor
Thrones for a manger didst surrender
Sapphire-paved courts for stable floor
Thou who wast rich beyond all splendour
All for love's sake becamest poor

Verse 2

Thou who art God beyond all praising
All for love's sake becamest man
Stooping so low but sinners raising
Heavenwards by Thine eternal plan
Thou who art God beyond all praising
All for love's sake becamest man

Verse 3

Thou who art love beyond all telling
Saviour and King we worship Thee
Emmanuel within us dwelling
Make us what Thou wouldst have us be
Thou who art love beyond all telling
Saviour and King we worship Thee
