lowest of lows

Josiah Queen

Lyrics
There's no room in the inn for a Savior
There's no power to claim for His own
Enthroned in a humble manger
And worshiped by the lowest of lows

Could've come down from heaven in splendor
With ten thousand angels all by His throne
But He came like a helpless baby
He became the lowest of lows

Let us adore, let us adore
Emmanuel
Let us adore, let us adore
The son of man

God came to earth and traded His throne
For the lowest of lows

We join with the angels in singing
Let the glory of God fill the earth
As the shepherds all bow down and worship
God we'll sing it throughout all the earth

Let us adore, let us adore
Emmanuel
Let us adore, let us adore
The son of man

God came to earth and traded His throne
For the lowest of lows

He came like a lamb for the slaughter
But one day He would come back to rule
When the darkness triumphs over
We will see a light bursting through

And the heavens will open with splendor
And the heavenly trumpets will blow
And the King of Kings of the nations
Will return for the lowest of lows

Let us adore, let us adore
Emmanuel
Let us adore, let us adore
The son of man

God came to earth and traded His throne
For the lowest of lows

God came to earth and traded His throne
For the lowest of lows

💡 Song Meaning & Background

This track is a vulnerable admission of hitting rock bottom and finding that God's grace is still present and sufficient there. It echoes the truth of Psalm 139, asserting that even if one makes their bed in the depths, God is there.
