281. With Joy We Meditate the Grace | C.M. |
| by Watts |
|
|
| | |
|
| 1 | With joy we meditate the grace | Hebrews 4:15-16; 1 John 4:8 |
| Of God's High Priest above; |
| His heart is filled with tenderness, |
| His very name is Love. |
|
| 2 | Touched with a sympathy within, | Hebrews 4:15; Psalm 103:14 |
| He knows our feeble frame: |
| He knows what sorest trials mean, |
| For He has felt the same. |
|
| 3 | But spotless, undefiled and pure, | Hebrews 7:26; Revelation 5:9; Matthew 4:1-10; Hebrews 12:4 |
| The great Redeemer stood, |
| While Satan's fiery darts He bore, |
| And did resist to blood. |
|
| 4 | He, in the days of feeble flesh, | Hebrews 5:7; Acts 9:4 |
| Poured out His cries and tears, |
| And, though ascended, feels afresh |
| What every member bears. |
|
| 5 | Then boldly let our faith address | Hebrews 4:16 |
| The throne of grace and power; |
| We shall obtain delivering grace |
| In every needed hour. |
