Before The Skies

Before the skies were stretched abroad
From everlasting was the Word
God was He; the Word was God and He must be adored
By the Word all came to be, the universe and all contained
Showing God’s authority, His power and His reign

Glory, glory, glory in the highest
Glory, glory, glory God is with us, with us

Though His glories still proceed
Never changing from our LordHe laid down His majesty and took on human form
Mortals here beheld His face, the Heav’nly Father’s perfect Son
Full of truth and full of grace; the Saviour now has come!

He gave up His life in love so our lips could gladly tell
Christ, the Word, has come to us, our Lord, Immanuel
