Where high the heavenly temple stands
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 206 hymnals Topics: Our Response to God in intercession and petition Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
the house of God not made with hands,
a great High Priest our nature wears,
Jesus, the Son of God, appears.
2 He who for us our surety stood,
and poured on earth his precious blood,
pursues in heaven his mighty plan,
eternal God and Son of Man.
3 Though now ascended up on high,
he bends on earth a brother's eye;
partaker of the human name,
he knows the frailty of our frame.
4 Our fellow-sufferer yet retains
a fellow-feeling of our pains;
and still remembers in the skies
his tears, his agonies, and cries.
5 In every pang that rends the heart
the Man of Sorrows has a part;
he sympathizes with our grief,
and to the sufferer sends relief.
6 With boldness, therefore, at the throne,
let us make all our sorrows known;
and ask the aid of heavenly power
to help us in the evil hour. Scripture: Hebrews 4:14-16 Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: Scottish Paraphrases, 1781, Paraphrase 58, alt.

There's a wideness in God's mercy
Author: Frederick William Faber (1814-1863) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 916 hymnals Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in adoration and gratitude Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,
like the wideness of the sea;
there’s a kindness in his justice,
which is more than liberty.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than in God's heaven:
there is no place where earth's failings
have such kindly judgment given.
3 For the love of God is broader
than the measure of the mind:
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind.
4 If our love were but more simple,
we should take him at his word;
and our lives be filled with glory
from the glory of the Lord. Scripture: 1 John 4:16 Used With Tune: ALL FOR JESUS
There's a wideness in God's mercy
