Lyrics:

Refrain: Jesus, Jesus, let all creation
bend the knee to the Lord.

1. In him we live, we move, and have our being;
in him the Christ, in him the king! Jesus, the Lord.

2. Though Son, he did not cling to godliness;
but emptied himself, became a slave! Jesus, the Lord.

3. He lived obediently his Father's will
accepting his death, death on a tree! Jesus, the Lord.
