| Lord of Glory |
| “Lord of glory” (1 Corinthians 2:8). |
| It is the first day of the week, and I woke up this morning to notice this text propped up on the dresser by the mirror in the home in which my wife and I are staying. |
| As I was getting ready to attend the remembrance meeting, I thought a lot about these words. It is an awesome statement, really beyond human comprehension, but here is what the commentator Hamilton Smith says on the subject: |
| “ ‘ The Lord of glory’ speaks of a wider scene than this earth; it speaks of a universal dominion embracing every created thing and being, over which the crucified One is made Lord.” |
| This is how the hymn-writer, Richard Holden, expressed it: |
Lord of glory, we adore Thee!
Christ of God, ascended high!
Heart and soul we bow before Thee,
Glorious now beyond the sky:
Thee we worship, Thee we praise —
Excellent in all Thy ways. |
| What a great and glorious Savior and Lord we have! May this thought fill us with worship today. |
