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 Lord
He 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 Savior 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
