Christ and Aaron

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #121 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ First Line: Jesus, in thee our eyes behold Lyrics: 1 Jesus, in thee our eyes behold A thousand glories more Than the rich gems and polished gold The sons of Aaron wore. 2 They first their own burnt offerings brought To purge themselves from sin; Thy life was pure without a spot, And all thy nature clean. 3 [Fresh blood, as constant as the day, Was on their altar spilt; But thy one offering takes away For ever all our guilt. 4 Their priesthood ran through several hands, For mortal was their race; Thy never-changing office stands Eternal as thy days.] 5 [Once in the circuit of a year, With blood (but not his own), Aaron within the veil appears, Before the golden throne. 6 But Christ, by his own powerful blood, Ascends above the skies, And, in the presence of our God, Shows his own sacrifice.] 7 Jesus, the King of Glory, reigns On Zion’s heavenly hill; Looks like a lamb that has been slain, And wears his priesthood still. 8 He ever lives to intercede Before his Father’s face; Give him, my soul, thy cause to plead, Nor doubt the Father’s grace.

Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #122a (1899) Topics: Christ Character of Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, Oh, receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah! leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me; All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find: Raise the fallen, cheer the faint Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name; I am all unrighteousness False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: REFUGE

Christ, a True Friend

This was boundless love indeed! Jesus is a Friend in need! 3 O for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above. But when home our souls are brought, We will praise thee as we ought. Languages: English

Christ the Sinner's Hiding-Place

Author: Brewer Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #134 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ First Line: Hail, sovereign Love, that first began Lyrics: 1 Hail, sovereign love, that first began The scheme to rescue fallen man! Hail, matchless, free, eternal grace, That gave my soul a hiding-place! 2 [Against the God who rules the sky I fought with hand uplifted high; Despised the mention of his grace, Too proud to seek a hiding-place. 3 But thus the eternal counsel ran: “Almighty love, arrest that man!” I felt the arrows of distress, And found I had no hiding-place. 4 Indignant Justice stood in view; To Sinai’s fiery mount I flew; But Justice cried, with frowning face, “This mountain is no hiding-place!” 5 Ere long a heavenly voice I heard, And Mercy’s angel-form appeared; She led me on, with placid pace, To Jesus, as my Hiding-place.] 6 Should storms of seven-fold thunder roll, And shake the globe from pole to pole, No flaming bolt could daunt my face, For Jesus is my Hiding-place. 7 On him almighty vengeance fell, That must have sunk a world to hell; He bore it for a chosen race, And thus became their Hiding-place. 8 A few more rolling suns, at most, Will land me on fair Canaan’s coast, Where I shall sing the song of grace, And see my glorious Hiding-place.

In pastures fresh he makes me feed, Beside the living stream. 2 He brings my wandering spirit back, When I forsake his ways; And leads me, for his mercy’s sake, In paths of truth and grace. 3 When I walk through the shades of death, Thy presence is my stay; A word of thy supporting breath Drives all my fears away. 4 Thy hand, in sight of all my foes, Does still my table spread; My cup with blessings overflows; Thy oil anoints my head. 5 The sure provisions of my God Attend me all my days. O may thy house be my abode, And all my work be praise! 6 [There would I find a settled rest, (While others go and come) No more a stranger or a guest, But like a child at home.] Languages: English

Yet must this building rise; ’Tis thy own work almighty God, And wondrous in our eyes. Languages: English
