My God, my Creator, the heavens did bow

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #41 (1844) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Lyrics: 1 My God, my Creator, the heavens did bow, To ransom offenders, and stooped very low; The body prepared by the Father assumes, And on the kind errand most joyfully comes. 2 O wonder of wonders! astonished I gaze, To see in the manger the Ancient of Days; And angels proclaiming the stranger forlorn, And telling the shepherds that Jesus is born. 3 For thousands of sinners the Lord bowed his head; For thousands of sinners he groaned and he bled. My spirit rejoices – the work it is done! My soul is redeemed – salvation is won! 4 [Dear Jesus, my Saviour, thy truth I embrace – Thy name and thy natures, thy Spirit and grace; And trace the pure footsteps of Jesus, my Lord, And glory in him whom proud sinners abhorred.] 5 My God is returned to glory on high; When death makes a passage, then to him I’ll fly, To join in the song of all praise through his blood, To the Three who are One inconceivable God.
