Philippians 2:5-12

Music by Emily Lewis and Joel Cepin

Bm G Bm E
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, who though existing in the form of God
Bm G Bm F#
Did not consider his equality with God something to cling to
Bm G Bm E
But emptied himself and took the form of a slave, and became like you and me.
Bm G Bm F#
So recognized in appearance as a human being he humbled himself,
Bm G Bm F#
and became obedient to death -- Yes, death on a cross!

Bm A F# G Bm A F# G
Let this mind be in you, Which was also in Christ
Bm A F# G Bm A F# G
Jesus, who Though existing in the form of God
Bm A F# G
Did not consider his equality with God
Bm A F# G Bm A F# G
Something to be grasped Something to be grasped (2nd time repeat last line)

Bm G Bm E
God, therefore, has lifted him on high, has given him the name which
Bm G Bm F#
surpasses every name so that in the name of Jesus every knee should
Bm G Bm E
bow: of those in heaven, of those on earth and of those under the earth
Bm G Bm F#
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
Bm G Bm E
He is Lord, to the glory of God the Father!

Bm G Bm E
Consequently, my beloved, just as you have always
Bm G Bm F#
Obeyed, not when I was with you only, but even more now that I am absent
Bm G Bm E
from you, cultivate your own salvation, with reverence and trepid-
Bm G Bm F#
ation. Let this mind, Let this mind…

[Chorus]
