GLORIES OF CHRIST.
90 C. M.
Christ a merciful High Priest,
1 \ X 7TTH joy we meditate the grace
VV Of our High Priest above;
His heart is full of tenderness,
His bosom glows with love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
He knows our feeble frame ;
He knows what sore temptations mean,
For he has felt the same.
3 But spotless, innocent and pure,
The great Redeemer stood;
While Satan’s fiery darts he bore,
He did resist to blood.
4 He, in the days of feeble flesh,
Pour’d out his cries and tears;
And, in his measure, feels afresh
What every member bears.
5 Then let our humble faith address
His mercy and his power;
We shall obtain delivering grace
In each distressing hour.
91 C. M.
Christ the Foundation of his Church.
1 DEHOLD the sure Foundation-Stone
D Which God in Zion lays,
To build our heavenly hopes upon,
And his eternal praise.
2 Chosen of God, to sinners dear,
Let saints adore the name;
They trust their whole salvation here,
Nor shall they suffer shame.
