Great High Priest

Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: Joyful Lays #145 (1884) First Line: Great High Priest, we view Thee stooping Lyrics: 1 Great High Priest, we view Thee stooping, With our names upon Thy breast, In the garden groaning, drooping, To the ground with horrors pressed. Weeping angels stand confounded, To behold their Maker thus, And can we remain unwounded, When we know ’twas all for us? 2 On the cross Thy body broken, Cancels every penal tie; Tempted souls, produce this token All demands to satisfy. All is finished; do not doubt it, But believe your dying Lord; Never reason more about it, Only take Him at His Word. 3 Lord, we fain would trust Thee solely; ’Twas for us Thy blood was spilt; Bruised Bridegroom, take us wholly, Take, and make us what Thou wilt. Thou hast borne the bitter sentence Passed on man’s devoted race; True belief and true repentance Are Thy gifts, Thou God of grace.

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #237b (1844) Lyrics: 1 Great High Priest, we view thee stooping With our names upon thy breast; In the garden groaning, drooping To the ground, with horrors pressed; Wondering angels stood confounded To behold their Maker thus; And can we remain unwounded, When we know ’twas all for us? 2 On the cross thy body broken Cancels every penal tie; Tempted souls produce this token, All demands to satisfy. All is finished; do not doubt it; But believe your dying Lord, Never reason more about it, Only take him at his word. 3 Lord, we fain would trust thee solely; ’Twas for us thy blood was spilt; Bruisèd Bridegroom, take us wholly, Take and make us what thou wilt. Thou hast borne the bitter sentence Passed on man’s devoted race; True belief and true repentance Are thy gifts, thou God of grace. Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Repentance Languages: English
