Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: BH2008 #144 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Majestic sweetness sits enthroned
Upon the Savior's brow;
His head with radiant glories crowned,
His lips with grace o'erflow,
His lips with grace o'erflow.
2 No mortal can with Him compare,
Among the sons of men;
Fairer is He than all the fair
Who fill the heav'nly train,
Who fill the heav'nly train.
3 He saw me plunged in deep distress,
And flew to my relief;
For me He bore the shameful cross,
And carried all my grief,
And carried all my grief.
4 To Him I owe my life and breath,
And all the joys I have;
He makes me triumph over death,
And saves me from the grave,
And saves me from the grave. Topics: Attributes of Jesus; Praise, Adoration, Worship, Exaltation of Jesus Languages: English Tune Title: ORTONVILLE
