Matthew 20:28: Not in a king's, but servant's form

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)

Religion

Not in a king's, but servant's form
Our Lord appear'd beneath.
To wait on every sinful worm.
And save them by His death:
But we shall see Him come from high
The glorious Son of Man,
And all the angels of the sky
Triumphant in His train.
