Hymn 125
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 419 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 5:7 First Line: With joy we meditate the grace Lyrics:
With joy we meditate the grace
Of our High Priest above;
His heart is made of tenderness,
His bowels melt with love.
Touched with a sympathy within,
He knows our feeble frame;
He knows what sore temptations mean,
For he has felt the same.
But spotless, innocent, and pure,
The great Redeemer stood,
While Satan's fiery darts he bore,
And did resist to blood.
He in the days of feeble flesh
Poured out his cries and tears,
And in his measure feels afresh
What every member bears.
[He'll never quench the smoking flax,
But raise it to a flame;
The bruised reed he never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest name.]
Then let our humble faith address
His mercy and his power;
We shall obtain deliv'ring grace
In the distressing hour.
Hymn 125
Alleluia! Sing to Jesus
Author: W. Chatterton Dix Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 214 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 5:1-8 First Line: Alleluia! Sing to Jesus Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! Sing to Jesus;
his the scepter, his the throne!
Alleluia! His the triumph,
his the victory alone.
Hark! the songs of peaceful Zion
thunder like a mighty flood;
Jesus out of ev'ry nation
hath redeemed us by his blood.
2 Alleluia! Not as orphans
are we left in sorrow now;
Alleluia! He is near us,
faith believes nor questions how:
Though the cloud from sight received him,
when the forty doays were o'er,
shall our hearts forget his promise,
"I am with you evermore"?
3 Alleluia! Bread of Angels,
thou on earth our food, our stay.
Alleluia! Here the sinful
flee to thee from day to day.
Intercessor, friend of sinners,
earth's Redeemer, plead for me,
where the songs of all the sinless
sweep across the crystal sea.
4 Alleluia! King eternal,
thee the Lord of lords we own.
Alleluia! Born of Mary,
earth thy footstool, heav'n thy throne:
Thou within the veil hast entered,
robed in flesh, our great High Priest--
thou on earth both priest and victim
in the eucharistic feast.

My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8.8 Appears in 127 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 5:7-10 Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior’s love to me,
love to the loveless shown,
that they might lovely be.
O who am I, that for my sake
my God should take frail flesh and die?
My God should take frail flesh and die?
2 God left the richest throne
salvation to bestow;
but Christ as flesh and bone
the world refused to know,
But, O my Friend, my Friend indeed,
who at my need His life did spend.did life expend;
who at my need did life expend.
3 Sometimes they threw down palms
and sweetest praises sang.
Hosannas and glad psalms
through streets and markets rang.
Then "Crucify!" is all their breath,
for blood and death they thirst and cry;
for blood and death they thirst and cry.
4 What has my Sovereign done?
What makes this rage and spite?
Christ gave new strength to run,
restored the gift of sight.
Sweet injuries! Yet they at these
themselves displease, and 'gainst Christ rise;
themselves displease, and 'gainst Christ rise.
5 I sing my plain belief,
one song my heart out-pours:
never was pain nor grief,
never was love like yours.
This is my Friend, in whose sweet praise
I all my days could gladly spend;
I all my days could gladly spend.

Crown him with many crowns
Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-94; Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 793 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 5:1-10 Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns,
the Lamb upon his throne;
hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
all music but its own:
awake, my soul, and sing
of him who died for me,
and hail him as your chosen king
through all eternity.
2 Crown him the Son of God
before the worlds began:
and we who tread where he has trod
crown him the Son of Man,
who every grief has known
that wrings the human breast,
and takes and bears them for his own,
that all in him may rest.
3 Crown him the Lord of love;
behold his hands and side,
those wounds yet visible above
in beauty glorified;
no angel there on high
can fully bear that sight,
but downwards bends a burning eye
at mysteries so bright.
4 Crown him the Lord of life,
who triumphed o'er the grave,
and rose victorious in the strife
for those he came to save:
his glories now we sing
who died, and rose on high;
who died eternal life to bring,
and lives that death may die.
5 Crown him the Lord of peace,
whose power a sceptre sways
from pole to pole, that wars may cease
absorbed in prayer and praise:
his reign shall know no end,
and round his pierced feet
fair flowers of paradise extend
their fragrance ever sweet.
6 Crown him the Lord of years,
the Potentate of time,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
majestic and sublime:
all hail, Redeemer, hail!
for you have died for me;
your praise shall never, never fail
throughout eternity.

See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 198 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 5:4 Lyrics: 1 See, the Conqueror mounts in triumph;
see the King in royal state,
riding on the clouds, his chariot,
to his heavenly palace gate.
Hark! the choirs of angel voices
joyful alleluias sing,
and the gates on high are opened
to receive their heavenly King.
2 He who on the cross did suffer,
he who from the grave arose,
he has vanquished sin and Satan,
he by death has spoiled his foes.
While he lifts his hands in blessing,
he is parted from his friends.
While their eager eyes behold him,
in the cloud the Lord ascends.
3 You have raised our human nature
on the clouds to God's right hand;
there we sit in heavenly places,
there with you in glory stand.
Jesus reigns, adored by angels;
man with God is on the throne!
Mighty Lord, in your ascension
we by faith can see our own.
