Since Our Great High Priest, Christ Jesus
Author: Christopher M. Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Since our great high priest, Christ Jesus,
bears the name above all names,
reigning Son of God, surpassing
other titles, powers, and claims
since to heaven our Lord has passed,
let us hold our witness fast!
2 Since we have a priest who suffered,
knowing weakness, tears, and pain;
who, like us, was tried and tempted;
unlike us, without a stain
since he shared our lowly place,
let us boldly seek his grace!
3 Sacrifice and suffering over,
now he sits at God's right hand,
crowned with praise, no more an outcast,
his preeminence long planned;
such a great high priest we have,
strong to help, supreme to save!
4 Love's example, hope's attraction,
faith's beginning and its end,
pioneer of our salvation,
mighty advocate and friend:
Jesus, now in glory raised,
our ascended Lord, be praised!

They Did Not Build in Vain
Author: Alan Luff, 1928- Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-3 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain
who founded here a church
as witness to God's love
amid a world of pain,
for still, to those who wish to see,
this place proclaims God's mystery.
2 They built upon the rock
that is the risen Lord,
the one foundation laid
which stands each earthly shock;
that, Spirit filled, we here might raise,
as living temples, prayer and praise.
3 Those who have loved this place,
a cloud of witnesses,
surround and urge us on
as we now run our race,
and so we lay aside each sin
in our desire to strive and win.
4 Though the horizon's bend
conceals the way ahead,
the footprints on the road
show Christ waits at the end;
in him alone our faith shall stand
who waits for us at God's right hand.
5 Here is our meeting place,
where doubt finds grounds of faith,
where hurt finds healing love,
our penitence your grace;
where bridging time to eternity
is God the holy Trinity. Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148th

Our hearts in Christian love:
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.

We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims, are one,
Our comforts and our cares.
3 We share our mutual woes,
Our mutual burdens bear,
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear.

And sin, we shall be free;
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity.
Amen. Topics: Church, The; Communion of Saints; Fellowship; Unity; Church, The Christian Fellowship Used With Tune: DENNIS

Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 524 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-3 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I long to take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty rock
within a weary land,
a home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat
and the burdens of the day.
2 Upon the cross of Jesus,
my eye at times can see
the very dying form of one
who suffered there for me.
And from my contrite heart, with tears,
two wonders I confess:
the wonder of his glorious love
and my unworthiness.
3 I take, O cross, your shadow
for my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine
than the sunshine of his face;
content to let the world go by,
to know no gain nor loss,
my sinful self my only shame,
my glory all, the cross.

Author: John Wesley (1703-1791); Gerhard Tersteegen (1697-1769) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 289 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:18-29 First Line: Lo, God is here! Let us adore Lyrics: 1 Lo, God is here! let us adore,
and own how awesome is this place;
let all within us feel God's power
and bow before the hidden face.
Redeeming Lord, your grace we prove,
serve you with awe, with reverence love.
2 Lo, God is here! Both day and night
united choirs of angels sing;
to God, enthroned above all height,
heaven's host their noblest praises bring;
disdain not, Lord, our meaner song,
who praise you with a stammering tongue.
3 Being of beings, may our praise
your courts with grateful fragrance fill;
still may we stand before your face,
still hear and do your sovereign will;
to you may all our thoughts arise,
ceaseless, accepted sacrifice. Topics: Praise of God; Gathering of the Community Used With Tune: VATER UNSER (OLD 112th)

Since all the varying scenes of time
Author: Hervey Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 175 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:10 Lyrics: 1 Since all the varying scenes of time
God's watchful eye surveys,
Oh, who so wise to choose our lot,
Or to appoint our ways!
2 Good when he gives--supremely good--
Nor less when he denies;
E'en crosses, from his sovereign hand,
Are blessings in disguise.
3 Why should we doubt a Father's love
So constant and so kind?
To his unerring, gracious will
Be every wish resigned. Topics: Attributes of God Providence; Just and True are Thy Ways
