A timeless hymn of Christ's boundless love, tracing all He did for us, from His coming into the world to His sacrifice, resurrection, and ascension. "For Us" draws its words from the medieval Latin hymn traditionally known in English as "O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High," translated by Benjamin Webb (1819–1885) from an anonymous text.

Lyrics:
O love how deep how broad how high
It fills the heart with ecstasy
That God the Son of God should take
Our mortal form for mortals' sake
He sent no angel to our race
Of higher or of lower place
But wore the robe of human frame
And he himself to this world came
For us baptized for us he bore
His holy fast and hungered sore
For us temptations sharp he knew
For us the tempter overthrew
For us he prayed for us he taught
For us his daily works he wrought
By words and signs and actions thus
Still seeking not himself but us
For us to wicked men betrayed
Scourged mocked in crown of thorns arrayed
He bore the shameful cross and death
For us at length gave up his breath
For us he rose from death again
For us he went on high to reign
For us he sent his Spirit here
To guide to strengthen and to cheer
To him whose boundless love has won
Salvation for us through his Son
To God the Father glory be
Both now and through eternity
