JESUS IS WORTHY OF ALL HONOUR AND OUR HIGHEST PRAISE




Phillipians 2:3-8 

Don't push your way to the front; don't sweet-talk your way to the top. Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. 
Don't be obsessed with getting your own advantage. 
Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand.  
Think of yourselves the way Christ Jesus thought of Himself.  
He had equal status with Almighty God but didn't think so much of Himself that He had to cling to the advantages of that status no matter what. Not at all. 
When the time came, He set aside the privileges of deity and took on the status of a slave, became human!  
Having become human, He stayed human. It was an incredibly humbling process. 
He didn't claim special privileges. 
Instead, He lived a selfless, obedient life and then died a selfless, obedient death--and the worst kind of death at that: 
a crucifixion.    
Because of that obedience, God lifted Him high and honored Him far beyond anyone or anything, ever, 
so that all created beings in heaven and on earth--even those long ago dead and buried--will bow in worship before this Jesus Christ,

I desire Jesus
Precious Lamb who ransomed me
Upon the cross He took my sin
By His blood He set me free

I desire Jesus
Oh His name my soul esteem
For upon His thorn-scarred brow
Is the crown of victory

He is worthy of all honour
All glory to His Name
He alone deserves
Our highest praise
And forever He will reign

I desire Jesus
Triumphant One the earth awaits
For on that day the earth will shine
With the glory of Your name

You are worthy of all honour
All glory to Your Name
You alone deserve
Our highest praise
And forever You will reign

You are all glorious
You are all glorious
My heart leans in
My soul must sing
You are all glorious
(x3)

For You are worthy of all honour
All glory to Your Name
You alone deserve
Our highest praise
And forever You will reign

You are all glorious
You are all glorious
My heart leans in
My soul must sing
You are all glorious
(x2)

I desire Jesus
Precious Lamb
Who ransomed me
Unto You an offering
Will my life forever be
