Hail, thou once despisèd Jesus!
Author: John Bakewell (1721-1819); Martin Madan (1726-1790) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 624 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:24-28 Lyrics: 1 Hail, thou once despisèd Jesus!
Hail, thou Galilean King!
Thou didst suffer to release us;
thou didst free salvation bring.
Hail, thou universal Saviour,
bearer of our sin and shame!
By thy merit we find favour;
life is given through thy name.
2 Paschal Lamb by God appointed,
all our sins on thee were laid;
by almighty love anointed,
thou hast full atonement made.
All thy people are forgiven
through the virtue of thy blood;
opened is the gate of heaven;
reconciled are we with God.
3 Jesus, hail! Enthroned in glory,
there for ever to abide;
all the heavenly host adore thee,
seated at thy Father's side.
There for sinners thou art pleading,
there thou dost our place prepare,
ever for us interceding,
till in glory we appear. Topics: Ascension Day; Atonement; Church Year Ascension; Church Year Christ the King; Forgiveness; Heaven; Jesus Names and images for; Jesus priesthood; The Seventh Sunday of Easter Year C Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

Where high the heavenly temple stands
Author: Logan Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 204 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:24 Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
The house of God not made with hands,
A great High-Priest our nature wears,
The guardian of mankind appears.
2 Though now ascended up on high,
He bends to earth a brother's eye;
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
3 Our fellow-sufferer yet retains
A fellow-feeling of our pains;
And still remembers, in the skies,
His tears, his agonies, and cries.
4 In every pang that rends the heart,
The Man of Sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
5 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. Topics: Christ Intercession and Reign; A Merciful and Faithful High-Priest

The King Shall Come
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:25 First Line: The King shall come when morning dawns Lyrics: 1 The King shall come when morning dawns
and light triumphant breaks;
when beauty gilds the eastern hills
and life to joy awakes.
2 Not as of old, a little child,
to bear, and fight, and die,
but crowned with glory like the sun
that lights the morning sky.
3 The King shall come when morning dawns
and earth's dark night is past;
O haste the rising of that morn,
the day that e'er shall last.
4 Then let the endless bliss begin,
by weary saints foretold,
when right shall triumph over wrong,
and truth shall be extolled.
5 The King shall come when morning dawns
and light and beauty brings.
Hail, Christ the Lord! Your people pray,
come quickly, King of kings!

Upon the Cross Extended
Author: John Kelly; Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:28 Lyrics: 1 Upon the cross extended,
See, world, thy Lord suspended,
Thy Savior yields His breath.
The Prince of Life from heaven
Himself hath freely given
To shame and blows and bitter death.
2 Come hither now and ponder,
'Twill fill thy soul with wonder,
Blood streams from every pore.
Through grief whose depth none knoweth,
From His great heart there floweth
Sigh after sigh of anguish o'er.
3 Who is it that hath bruised Thee?
Who hath so sore abused Thee
And caused Thee all Thy woe?
While we must make confession
Of sin and dire transgression,
Thou deeds of evil dost not know.
4 I caused Thy grief and sighing
By evils multiplying
As countless as the sands.
I caused the woes unnumbered
With which Thy soul is cumbered,
Thy sorrows raised by wicked hands.
5 'Tis I who should be smitten,
My doom should here be written:
Bound hand and foot in hell.
The fetters and the scourging,
The floods around Thee surging,
'Tis I who have deserved them well.
6 The load Thou takest on Thee,
That pressed so sorely on me,
It crushed me to the ground.
The cross for me enduring,
The crown for me securing,
My healing in Thy wounds is found.
7 A crown of thorns Thou wearest,
My shame and scorn Thou bearest,
That I might ransomed be.
My Bondsman, ever willing,
My place with patience filling,
From sin and guilt hast made me free.
8 Thy cords of love, my Savior,
Bind me to Thee forever,
I am no longer mine.
To Thee I gladly tender
All that my life can render
And all I have to Thee resign.
9 The cross I'll place before me,
Its saving power be o'er me,
Wherever I may be;
Thine innocence revealing
Thy love and mercy sealing,
The pledge of truth and constancy.
10 How God at our transgression
To anger gives expression,
How loud His thunders roll,
How fearfully He smiteth,
How sorely He requiteth,--
All this Thy sufferings teach my soul.
11 When evil men revile me,
With wicked tongues defile me,
I'll curb my vengeful heart.
The unjust wrong I'll suffer,
Unto my neighbor offer
Forgiveness for each bitter smart.
12 Thy groaning and Thy sighing,
Thy bitter tears and dying,
With which Thou wast oppressed,--
They shall, when life is ending,
Be guiding and attending
My way to Thine eternal rest.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Good Friday Used With Tune: O WELT, SIEH HIER

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,988 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:12-26 Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ, my Lord;
The vain things that now tempt me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.
3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
the pain and love flow mingled down;
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
4 Were ev'ry realm of nature mine,
My gift would still be far too small:
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Arise, My Soul, Arise
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 884 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:24 Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise,
shake off your guilty fears;
the bleeding Sacrifice
in my behalf appears.
Before the throne my Surety stands,
before the throne my Surety stands;
my name is written on his hands,
my name is written on his hands.
2 He ever lives above,
for me to intercede,
his all-redeeming love,
his precious blood to plead.
His blood atoned for ev'ry race,
his blood atoned for ev'ry race,
and sprinkles now the throne of grace,
and sprinkles now the throne of grace.
3 Five bleeding wounds he bears,
received on Calvary;
they pour effectual prayers,
they strongly plead for me.
"Forgive him, O forgive," they cry,
"forgive him, O forgive," they cry,
"nor let that ransomed sinner die,
nor let that ransomed sinner die!"
4 My God is reconciled;
his pard'ning voice I hear.
He owns me for his child,
I can no longer fear.
with confidence I now draw nigh,
with confidence I now draw nigh,
and "Father, Abba, Father!" cry,
and "Father, Abba, Father!" cry. Topics: Justification Used With Tune: CHODAN
