Our Priestly Person

Tune: St Hugh

(\'Lord, teach us how to pray aright\')

Hebrews 4 v.14-16

*********

Seeing we have a great high priest

Jesus, cares unto least

He is passed into the heavens

We view Him through faith\'s lens

 

He Jesus the Son of God, let

Us hold fast even yet

Our profession, our faith in Him

In word, deed, prayer, and hymn

 

For we have not a high priest which

Cannot be touched, but rich

From His store He can sympathise

For us He not denies

 

He can feel our infirmities

Our weaknesses are these

For He full divine, full human

Knows human hearts, each one

 

And He was in all points tempted

Yet without sin, our Head

Let us therefore come boldly to

His throne, find help anew

 

The throne of grace, that we may find

His presence loving, kind

Obtain mercy, and help of grace

In times of need we face
