Majestic sweetness sits enthroned

Author: Samuel Stennett Appears in 918 hymnals Topics: Imputation, of Sin Lyrics: 1 Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Saviour's brow; His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'er flow, His lips with grace o'er flow. 2 No mortal can with him compare, Among the sons of men; Fairer is he than all the fair That fill the heav'nly train, That fill the heav'nly train. 3 He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief; For me he bore the shameful cross, And carried all my grief, And carried all my grief. 4 To him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me triumph over death, And saves me from the grave, And saves me from the grave. 5 To heav'n, the place of his abode, He brings my weary feet; Shows me the glories of my God, And makes my joys complete. And makes my joys complete. 6 Since from his bounty I receive Such proofs of love divine, Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord, they should all be thine, Lord, they should all be thine. Amen. Scripture: Hebrews 2:9 Used With Tune: ORTONVILLE

Before the whiteness of that throne appear? Yet there are hands stretched out to draw me near. 3 The while I fain would tread the heav'nly way, Evil is ever with me day by day; Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall, "Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from all." 4 It is the voice of Jesus that I hear; His are the hands stretched out to draw me near, And his the blood that can for all atone And set me faultless there before the throne. 5 O great Absolver, grant my soul may wear The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer, That in the Father's courts my glorious dress May be the garment of thy righteousness. 6 Yea, thou wilt answer for me, righteous Lord; Thine all the merits, mine the great reward; Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown; Mine the life won, and thine the life laid down.

'Tis the long-expected Prophet, David's Son, yet David's Lord; By his Son God now has spoken: 'Tis the true and faithful Word. 2 Tell me, ye who hear him groaning, Was there ever grief like his? Friends thro' fear his cause disowning, Foes insulting his distress; Many hands were raised to wound him, None would interpose to save; But the deepest stroke that pierced him Was the stroke that Justice gave. 3 Ye who think of sin but lightly Nor suppose the evil great Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate. Mark the Sacrifice appointed, See who bears the awful load; 'Tis the Word, the Lord's Anointed, Son of Man and Son of God. 4 Here we have a firm foundation, Here the refuge of the lost; Christ's the Rock of our salvation, His the name of which we boast. Lamb of God, for sinners wounded, Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on him their hope have built. Amen.

Things future, nor things that are now, Nor all things below or above, Can make him his purpose forgo, Or sever my soul from his love. 3 My name from the palms of his hands Eternity will not erase; Impressed on his heart it remains, In marks of indelible grace. Yes, I to the end shall endure, As sure as the earnest is giv'n; More happy, but not more secure, The glorified spirits in heav'n. Amen. Scripture: Romans 8:38-39 Used With Tune: LLANGRISTIOLUS

Our ransom by your death was paid, for all your people giv'n, the law you perfectly obeyed, that they might enter heav'n. 4 As all, when Adam sinned alone, in his transgression died, so by the righteousness of one are sinners justified; we to your merit, gracious Lord, with humblest joy submit, again to paradise restored, in you alone complete.
