He who on earth as man was known

Author: Newton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #250 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Hebrews 1:3 Lyrics: 1 He who on earth as man was known, And bore our sins and pains, Now, seated on th' eternal throne, The God of glory reigns. 2 His hands the wheels of nature guide, With an unerring skill, And countless worlds, extended wide, Obey his sovereign will. 3 While harps unnumbered sound his praise In yonder world above, His saints on earth admire his ways, And glory in his love. 4 When troubles, like a burning sun, Beat heavy on their head, To this almighty Rock they run, And find a pleasing shade. 5 How glorious he! how happy they, In such a glorious Friend! Whose love secures them all the way, And crowns them at the end. Topics: Christ Intercession and Reign; At the Right Hand of the Majesty on High

Behold the Lord of all: creation speaks his praise, and everywhere above, below, his will obeys. 3 God's Spirit freely flows, high surging where it will: in prophet's word he spoke of old, is speaking still. Established is God's law and changeless it shall stand, deep written on the human heart, on sea, on land. 4 God has eternal life implanted in the soul; his love shall be our strength and stay while ages roll. Praise to the living God, all praise be to his name, who was, and is, and is to be, and still the same!

Before the Throne of God Above

Author: Charitie Lees DeCheney Bancroft, 1841-1923 Hymnal: Christian Worship #561 (2021) Scripture: Hebrews 1:3 Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above I have a strong and perfect plea; a great High Priest whose name is Love, who ever lives and pleads for me. My name is graven on his hands, my name is written on his heart. I know that while in heav'n he stands no tongue can bid me thence depart, no tongue can bid me thence depart. 2 When Satan tempts me to despair and tells me of the guilt within, upward I look and see him there who made an end of all my sin. Because the sinless Savior died, my sinful soul is counted free; for God the just is satisfied to look on him and pardon me, to look on him and pardon me. 3 Behold him there, the risen Lamb, my perfect, spotless righteousness, the great unchangeable I AM, the King of glory and of grace. At one with him, I cannot die; my soul is purchased by his blood. My life is hid with Christ on high, with Christ my Savior and my God, with Christ my Savior and my God.
