Author: Michael Bruce Appears in 206 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
The house of God not made with hands,
A great High Priest our nature wears,
The Guardian of mankind appears.
2 He who for men their surety stood,
And poured on earth his precious blood,
Pursues in heaven his mighty plan,
The Saviour and the Friend of man.
3 In every pang that rends the heart,
The Man of sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
4 With boldness, therefore, at the house
Let us make all our sorrows known,
And ask the aid of heavenly power,
To help us in the evil hour.
