High Priest, Merciful and Faithful

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 420 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 2:17 First Line: With joy we meditate the grace Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace Of our High Priest above; His heart is made of tenderness, His bowels melt with love. 2 Touch'd with a sympathy within, He knows our feeble frame; He knows what sore temptations mean, For he has felt the same. 3 But spotless, innocent, and pure The great Redeemer stood, While Satan's fiery darts he bore, And did resist to blood. 4 He, in the days of feeble flesh Pour'd out his cries and tears. And in his measure feels afresh What ev.ry member bears. 5 He'll never quench the smoaking flax, But raise it to a flame: The bruised reed he never breaks, Nor scorns the meanest name. 6 Then let our humble faith address His mercy and his pow'r, We shall obtain deliv'ring grace In the distressing hour.
