Hebrews 2 v.14-18

********

As we partake human frame

Of flesh and blood the same

So Christ did also share in

Our nature, yet no sin

Was found in Him, full divine

And full human, the line

Of David was Hs birth here

He did on earth appear

 

That through death He might destroy

The devil, each trick, ploy

Who had the power of death

To fright each trembling breath

Of humans while they living

Christ deliverance did bring

To those who through death\'s fear found

Were all their lifetime bound

 

For truly Christ the nature

Of angels took not sure

But took on nature human

For each child, woman, man

And so like us He was made 

Trusting His Father, staid

So that He might be a priest

To greatest and to least

 

A merciful and faithful

High priest, He over all

In things to God pertaining

Our Saviour and our King

To make the reconciling

For sins of people, bring

Himself as the whole offering

And not lacking one thing

 

For in the life that He led

Suffered being tempted

He is able to help those

That are tempted, He knows

Lord, help us see you before

Us went, holy and pure

Our confidence, faith in you

Our eternal priest view
