8,8,6.

Thou Son of God — the woman’s seed
 
Who didst for us on Calv’ry bleed,
 
And bear our heavy load;
 
Spoiler of death’s o’erwhelming power,
 
O’ercome by Thee in that dread hour;
 
Thou holy One of God!

Thy blood we sing; by that alone,
 
With boldness to th’ eternal throne,
 
Through Thee we now draw nigh;
 
It blots out every stain of sin,
 
Washes the guilty conscience clean,
 
And makes th’ accuser fly.
“But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people. The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing. Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience. Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation. But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building. Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” (Hebrews 9:7-14)
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)

“Thus saith the Lord that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.” (Isaiah 44:2)
“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” (Hebrews 9:14)
“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.” (Revelation 12:10)
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7)

Behold us, Lord! a feeble band,
 
In conflict with the foe we stand,
 
The ransomed of Thy cross;
 
We sing the triumphs of Thy name;
 
All other glory here is shame,
 
All other gain’s but loss.
