Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #164 (1890) First Line: How condescending and how kind Lyrics: 1 How condescending and how kind
Was God's eternal Son!
Our misery reached his heavenly mind,
And pity brought him down.
2 He sunk beneath our heavy woes,
To raise us to his throne;
There's ne'er a gift his hand bestows,
But cost his heart a groan.
3 This was compassion, like a God,
That when the Saviour knew
The price of pardon was his blood,
His pity ne'er withdrew.
4 Now, though he reigns exalted high,
His love is still as great;
Well he remembers Calvary,
Nor let his saints forget. Topics: The Lord Jesus Christ; Calvary; Christ Crucifixion of; Christ Love of; Christ Sufferings of; Kindness; Calvary; Christ Crucifixion of; Christ Love of; Christ Sufferings of; Kindness Languages: English Tune Title: HOLY TRINITY
