Lift up your eyes and see the riches of the All-sufficient King seated on his throne in glory See his scepter that stretches the expanse of unmeasured space Hear Him who holds all things together declare "All things are mine without exception" See the curiosity of the cosmos As Christ condescends to His most cherished creatures See the astonishment of angels as the Almighty advances towards Earth See the humility of the pre-existent King born of a virgin birth The Infinite becomes infant, the Maker becomes man The divine becomes despised and the Christ is crucified The Author of all creation cursed upon the tree That He himself spoke into being And the Lord of life was laid in the tomb But the grave could not contain Him And so the Son of Man was raised to life But why? To draw near, to pierce our greatest fear To shed satisfying blood on our behalf To give back the life we were meant to have To enjoy, to hear, to adore, to taste And to look with peace upon our Savior's face And to embrace Him with an undying faith To interpose all His worthiness into us And serve the most unworthy and undeserving He is our God and we are mere men made by Him We are not like Him but he loves us and moves among us The great uncreated and the created no longer separated He is Immanuel, God with us
