Such a high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this He did once, when He offered up Himself. (Heb. 7:26‑27)
Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it. (Eph. 5:25)
His precious blood has spoken there,
   Before and on the throne:
And His own wounds in heaven declare,
   The atoning work is done.
’Tis finished — here our souls have rest;
   His work can never fail:
By Him, our sacrifice and priest,
   We pass within the veil.
