Canticle Philippians 2:6-11

Leader: Though he was in a form of God,

Jesus did not deem equality with God

Something to be grasped at

All: Rather, he emptied himself

And took a form of a slave

Being born in the likeness of men.

Leader: He was known to be of human estate,

And it was thus that he humbled himself,

Obediently accepting even death, Death on a cross!

All: Because this,

God greatly exalted him

And bestowed on him the name

Above every other name

Leader: So that at Jesus’ name

Every knee must bend

In the heavens, on the earth,

And under the earth

All: and every tongue proclaim

To the glory of God the Father:

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!
