Low at His Feet

D. S. Warner • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 28:9

Verse 1

Oh, when we remember the goodness And infinite pity of God, Who tenderly bore with our hardness, When over His mercies we trod.

Chorus

’Tis low, ’tis low, Low down at His feet we bow; ’Tis low, ’tis low, ’Tis low at His feet we bow;

Verse 2

’Tis meet that a creature dependent For even this breath that we draw, Should feel very grateful, and humbly Serve God in His beautiful law.

Chorus

’Tis low, ’tis low, Low down at His feet we bow; ’Tis low, ’tis low, ’Tis low at His feet we bow;

Verse 3

And when we behold the compassion That flowed from the side of the Just; Such love to the poor, guilty sinner Compels us to fall in the dust.

Chorus

’Tis low, ’tis low, Low down at His feet we bow; ’Tis low, ’tis low, ’Tis low at His feet we bow;

Verse 4

Come, sinner, and ponder a moment, The pains of the Crucified One; Was not this to save thee from torment? Then yield at the feet of the Son.

Chorus

’Tis low, ’tis low, Low down at His feet we bow; ’Tis low, ’tis low, ’Tis low at His feet we bow;
