Leader
[PLEASE STAND]
Christ Jesus, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with
God a thing to be grasped,
People but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in our
likeness.
Leader
And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient
unto death, even death on a cross.
People Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name
which is above every name,
Leader
that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, in heaven and on earth and
under the earth,
ALL
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father. Amen.
