Text:Every Knee to Him Shall Bow
Author:Fanny J. Crosby
Tune:[Jesus the meek and lowly]
Composer:Jno. R. Sweney

8. Every Knee to Him Shall Bow

1 Jesus the meek and lowly
Dwelleth in light on high;
Blessed is he and holy,
Ruler of earth and sky.

Refrain:
Ev’ry knee to him shall bow,
Ev’ry creature and tongue confess
That he is the Lord, the mighty Lord,
Bearing the sceptre of righteousness.

2 He who, despised, afflicted,
Carried our weight of sin,
Opens the gates of glory,
Welcomes the faithful in. [Refrain]

3 He who, alone, in sorrow,
Prayed at the midnight hour,
Weareth a crown eternal
Won by his conqu’ring power. [Refrain]

4 He is the Rock of Ages,
Rock where the soul may hide,
Safe from the storm and tempest,
Over life’s rolling tide. [Refrain]
