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 days were o'er, Shall our hearts forget His promise: "I am with you evermore"? 3 Alleluia! Bread of heaven, Here on earth our food, our stay; Alleluia! Here the sinful Flee to You from day to day. Intercessor, Friend of sinners, Earth's Redeemer, hear our plea Where the songs of all the sinless Sweep across the crystal sea. 4 Alleluia! King eternal, Lord omnipotent we own; Alleluia! Born of Mary, Earth Your footstool, heav'n Your throne. As within the veil You entered, Robed in flesh, our great High Priest, Here on earth both priest and victim In the eucharistic feast. 5 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 Has redeemed us by His blood." Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Hymn 145

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 50 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9 First Line: Jesus, in thee our eyes behold Lyrics: Jesus, in thee our eyes behold A thousand glories more, Than the rich gems and polished gold The sons of Aaron wore. They first their own burnt-offerings brought, To purge themselves from sin; Thy life was pure without a spot, And all thy nature clean. [Fresh blood as constant as the day Was on their altar spilt; But thy one offering takes away For ever all our guilt.] [Their priesthood ran through several hands, For mortal was their race; Thy never-changing office stands Eternal as thy days.] [Once in the circuit of a year, With blood, but not his own, Aaron within the veil appears Before the golden throne: But Christ, by his own powerful blood, Ascends above the skies, And in the presence of our God Shows his own sacrifice.] Jesus, the King of glory, reigns On Zion's heav'nly hill; Looks like a lamb that has been slain, And wears his priesthood still. He ever lives to intercede Before his Father's face: Give him, my soul, thy cause to plead, Nor doubt the Father's grace.

The Church's One Foundation

Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 859 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:25 Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord; she is his new creation, by water and the word: from heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride; with his own blood he bought her, and for her life he died. 2 Elect from every nation, yet one o’er all the earth, her charter of salvation; one Lord, one faith, one birth; one holy name she blesses, partakes one holy food, and to one hope she presses with every grace endued. 3 'Though with a scornful wonder we see her sore oppressed, by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distressed: yet saints their watch are keeping, their cry goes up, “How long?” and soon the night of weeping shall be the morn of song. 4 ’Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of her war, she waits the consummation of peace forevermore, till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest, and the great Church victorious shall be the Church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth hath union with God, the Three in One, and mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won: O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we like them, the meek and lowly, on high may dwell with thee.

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
