Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 898 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears; The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Surety stands, My name is written on His hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede; His all-redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly speak for me; Forgive him, O forgive, the cry, Nor let that ransomed sinner die! 4 The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One; He cannot turn away The presence of his Son; His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. 5 My God is reconciled, His pardoning voice I hear: He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear; With confidence I now draw nigh, And "Father, Abba Father!" cry.

Jesus, My Great High Priest

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my great High Priest, offered his blood and died; my guilty conscience seeks no sacrifice beside. His pow'rful blood did once atone, and now it pleads before the throne. 2 To this dear Surety's hand will I commit my cause; he answers and fulfills his Father's broken laws. Behold my soul at freedom set, my Surety paid the dreadful debt. 3 My Advocate appears for my defense on high; the Father bows his ears and lays his thunder by. Not all that hell or sin can say shall turn his heart, his love, away. 4 Should all the hosts of death and pow'rs of hell unknown put their most dreadful forms of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays his conqu'ring pow'r and guardian grace.

Thou art the Christ, O Lord

Author: W. W. How Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Thou art the Christ, O Lord, The Son of God, most high!" Forever be adored, That Name in earth and sky. In which, tho' mortal strength may fail, The saints of God at last prevail! 2 Oh, surely he was blest, With blessedness unpriced, Who taught of God, confessed The Godhead in the Christ! For of Thy Church, Lord, Thou didst own Thy saint a true foundation-stone. 3 Thrice fallen, thrice restored! The bitter lesson learnt, That heart for Thee, O Lord, With triple ardor burnt. The cross he took he laid not down Until he grasped the martyr's crown. 4 Oh bright triumphant faith! Oh courage void of fears! Oh love, most strong in death! Oh penitential tears! By these, Lord, keep us lest we fall, And make us go where Thou shalt call. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Peter; Confession of Christ Used With Tune: BEVAN

Rejoice, ye sons of men!

Author: W. W. How Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rejoice ye sons of men! Your brightest praises yield! The everlasting Son See in the flesh revealed! The world's Redeemer comes to-day His own Redemption's price to pay. 2 Lo! Simeon's saintly arms The holy burden bear; He sees with raptured eye His true salvation there. The weary waiting now is past; The long-expected comes at last. 3 The agèd saint's embrace The blessèd mother saw, And on his words so strange She mused with silent awe. What conflict for her child is stored? And what for her this piercing sword? 4 O Saviour, in Thy courts We all our sins confess: But Thou didst once for us Fulfill all righteousness. Impure, unclean, oh, may we be, Presented pure and clean in Thee! 5 And when, O God made Man, Upon our waiting eye, In glorious might revealed, Salvation draweth nigh; In that great day Thy servants bless, And be "the Lord of Righteousness"! Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts The Purification Used With Tune: BEVAN
