Need the lyrics to DOWN FROM HIS GLORY by John W. Peterson

Hi Bonnie,
Is this the DOWN FROM HIS GLORY you are looking for?

Down from His glory,
Ever living story,
My God and Savior came,
And Jesus was His name.
Born in a manger,
To His own a stranger,
A Man of sorrows, tears and agony.

O how I love Him! How I adore Him!
My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!
The great Creator became my Savior,
And all God's fulness dwelleth in Him.

What condescension,
Bringing us redemption;
That in the dead of night,
Not one faint hope in sight,
God, gracious, tender,
Laid aside His splendor,
Stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul.

Without reluctance,
Flesh and blood His substance
He took the form of man,
Revealed the hidden plan.
O glorious myst'ry,
Sacrifice of Calv'ry,
And now I know Thou art the great "I AM."

Thank you for your reply but the Down From His Glory I'm looking for is from the Christmas Contata John W. Peterson wrote. Same name but different words.

Down from His glory the Savior came
leaving His Father and His heavenly throne above
Down from His glory, O praise His name
He came to bring the world that wonderful story of love

I'm working on the lyrics but because of time constraints
can you give me all the lyrics you have so far

Bonnie,
Here's my best effort. Trust it will help
Nancy

Down from His glory the Savior came
leaving His father and His heavenly throne above
Down from His glory, O praise His name
He came to bring the world that wonderful story of love

The glorious promise that reached the ear
of ancient prophets, the truth was clear
God's son would someday on earth appear
Appear to be our Redeemer (and King)
Appear to be our Redeemer and King

Down from His glory the Savior came
leaving His father and His heavenly throne above
Down from His glory, O praise His name
He came to bring the world that wonderful story of love

That's why He came ( ? ) Came to proclaim (proclaim to all)
Proclaim God's love. Proclaim to all God's grace and love

(spoken) And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God
unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph,
of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

Hail thou art highly favored. The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women

(spoken) And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying,
and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God.
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.

He shall be great. He shall be great
and shall be called the Son of the Highest
He shall be great. He shall be great
and shall be called the Son of the Highest

And the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David:
And He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever;
(And He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever

and of His kingdom there shall be no end.

He shall be great, He shall be great
and shall be called the Son of the Highest
And He shall reign, and He shall reign
and of his kingdom there shall be no end
and of his kingdom there shall be no end
