You Who Were Rich

You who were rich beyond all splendor All for love’s sake became poor Thrones for a manger did surrender Sapphire paved courts, for stable floor You who were rich beyond all splendor All for love’s sake became poor You who are God beyond all praising All for love’s sake became man Stooping so low but sinners raising Heav’nward by your eternal plan You who are God beyond all praising All for love’s sake became man You who are love beyond all telling Savior and king we worship Thee Emmanuel, within us dwelling Make us what you would have us be You who are love beyond all telling Savior and King we worship Thee Amen
