This is a carol that describes the depths of the sacrifice the King of Kings made in coming from perfect Heaven to our imperfect Earth.

Story behind the song
I was thinking, upon writing this, about all the depth of the distance the Lord Jesus Christ crossed as God in Heaven, coming to take the from of man on sin-sick, cursed Earth . . . this was the result. The world into which He came is bleak . . . but He brings the light!
Lyrics
Immortal plunge! What distance He, Who rules beyond the skies And dwells in light more pure and bright Than ever meets our eyes, Came down, to live within a world So sinful, cold, and dim! Ah, what a plunge, from Heaven's throne To little Bethlehem! Immortal plunge! What glory did The Lord of Lords lay down, To take the form of those He formed From the dust of the ground! The Voice that spake the universe, All its wonders, far and wide, Took on our needs, and pled our needs With just a baby's cry. Immortal plunge! That He who gave Each creature it's homestead, Could not receive, when He came down, A pillow for His head! No mighty, wealthy family Knew to make a place for Him; A peasant girl would mother Him In the stable of an inn. Immortal plunge! Immortal love! For God became Immanuel, And with those He would save, He dwelled And died a crucifixion death To pay for sins 'til none was left. He rose again to ever be A living Saviour, yes, indeed! And all who believe on Him Shall one day dwell with Him -- immortal!
