Lyrics Canticle Philippians - John Michael Talbot, The Monks of Little Portion Hermitage

Canticle Philippians

Though He was in the form of God
Jesus did not deem equality with God
Something to be grasped
Rather He emptied himself
And took the form of a slave
Being born in the likeness of men
He was known to be a human and saint
And it was just that He humbled himself
Obedient be accepting even death
Death on a cross
Because of this
God highly exalted Him
And bestowed upon him the name
Above every other name
So that at Jesus name
Every knee must bend
In the heavens and the earth
And under the earth
And every tongue plea
To the glory of God the Father
Jesus Christ is Lord
Glory of the Father
And to the Son
And to the Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning
Is now
And will be forever
Amen
