High Priest Petitioning

orchidee



Tune: Eventide

('Abide with me')

Hebrews 4 v.14-16

*********

Seeing that we do have a great high priest

Who does attend to greatest as to least

He has passed into the heavens, Jesus

The Son of God, He the high priest for us

 

So let us hold our profession of faith

For true is each word that He sure does saith

We have not a high priest which cannot be

Touched with our condition, He each does see

 

He is able to sympathise and feel

Our infirmities, works for our good weal

Was in all points tempted as humans be

Yet was without sin, and helps you and me

 

Let us therefore come boldly to His throne

Of grace, where He does reign, and He alone

There to obtain mercy and His grace find

In our time of need, stay to Him aligned

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE - GOOD MONDAY UNCLE STEVE - Awesome Hymn very Funereal but when chosen always sung with a mixture of Gusto & Respect. I hope it features in the Virtual Cup Final on Saturday ! We Love HEBREWS an amazing book bringing us the Supremacy of Our Lord Jesus Christ - Over ANGELS & PROPHETS & PRIESTS & KINGS & ALL CREATION. JESUS the Man in the Glory @ Gods Right Hand - Our Representative & Mediator & Intercessor ! The Risen Glorified Christ is the very essence of the GOSPEL !
    We love CAMBRDGE and if we visit for a Weekend or a Conference we always pop into Kings to listen to the Choir. On of the BEST Cathedral Choirs in the WORLD ~ AMEN Please check *NOT GOING OUT* Posted yesterday as a POEM & a FUSION ! Please add an ODE on what You missed during LOCKDOWN ~ THANKS !

    Blessings & JOY to You & Your PRAISING PUP
    Spiritual Love ~ ANGELA & BRIAN & SMOKEY !

          he knew the chances were slim
          he thought about it down at the gym
          but he couldnt believe
          the dog had this up his sleeve
          for fido had written a hymn

          what are you feeding him on?

                Thanks Gold. Yes, and yet there are things like prayers for people to be healed, then they may........... If it seems a 'cop-out', some say it's the 'ultimate healing'.
