HYMN Lyrics Text: Praise To The Holiest In The Height 

1. Praise to the holiest

in the height.

And in the depth be praised.

In all His works most wonderful

most sure in all His ways.

2. O loving wisdom of our God

when all was sin and shame

a second Adam to the fight,

and to the rescue came.

3. O wisest love, that flesh and blood

which did in Adam fail,

should strive afresh against their foe.

Should strive and should prevail.

4. And that a higher gift than grace

should flesh and blood refine,

God’s presence and His very Self,

and essence all divine.

5. O generous love that He who smote

in man for man the foe

The double agony in man

for man should undergo.

6. And in the garden secretly,

and on the cross on high,

Should teach is brethren

and inspire to suffer and to die.
