1. Because Jehovah created

The universe so grand,

To him belong the earth and sky,

The works of his own hand.

The breath of life he has given

And to his creatures shown

That worthy is he to have the praise,

The worship of all his own.

2. The ancient nation of Israel,

At Sinai they did say:

'The Law Jehovah's given us

We gladly will obey.'

He was their husbandly owner;

He bought them from the sea.

A nation of dedicated ones

They always should prove to be.

3. In water Jesus was baptized

To righteousness fulfill,

And humbly he did there present

Himself to do God's will.

When he came up from the Jordan

As God's anointed Son,

Obedient and loyal he would serve

As God's consecrated One.

4. We come before you, Jehovah,

To praise your name so great.

Disowning self, with humble hearts,

Our lives we dedicate.

You gave your only-begotten,

Who paid the price so high.

No longer as living for ourselves,

For you we shall live or die.
