Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (born 1926) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #218a (1987) Meter: 6.6.5.5.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Name of all majesty, fathomless mystery,
king of all ages by angels adored;
power and authority, splendour and dignity,
bow to his mastery — Jesus is Lord!
2 Child of our destiny, God from eternity,
love of the Father on sinners out-poured;
see now what God has done sending his only Son,
Christ the beloved One — Jesus is Lord!
3 Saviour of Calvary, costliest victory,
darkness defeated and Eden restored;
born as a man to die, nailed to a cross on high,
cold in the grave to lie — Jesus is Lord!
4 Source of all sovereignty, light, immortality,
life everlasting and heaven assured;
so with the ransomed, we praise him eternally,
Christ in his majesty — Jesus is Lord! Topics: Advent 4 The Annunciation; God, Saviour Praised and Worshipped; Pentecost 3 The Church's Confidence in Christ; The Ascension of Christ Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:3 Languages: English Tune Title: ALL MAJESTY
