The intercession of Christ
Author: Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CLII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Intercession of Christ; Intercession of Christ First Line: He lives, the great redeemer lives Lyrics: 1 He lives, the great redeemer lives,
(What joy the blest assurance gives!)
And now before his father God,
Pleads the full merits of his blood.
2 Repeated crimes awake our fears,
And justice arm'd with frowns appears;
But in the savior's lovely face
Sweet mercy smiles, and all is peace.
3 Hence then, ye black despairing thoughts,
Above our fears, above our faults
His powerful intercessions rise
And guilt recedes, and terror dies.
4 In every dark distressful hour,
When sin and satan join their power;
Let this dear hope repel the dart,
That Jesus bears us on his heart.
5 Great advocate, almighty friend—
On him our humble hopes depend;
Our cause can never, never fail,
For Jesus pleads, and must prevail.
Scripture: Hebrews 7:25 Languages: English
The intercession of Christ
Christ's admonition to Peter under approaching trials, and intercession for him
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CLV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Intercession of Christ; Intercession of Christ For Peter; Christ's intercession of the tempted First Line: How keen the tempter's malice is! Lyrics: 1 How keen the tempter's malice is!
How artful, and how great!
Tho' not one grain shall be destroyed,
Yet will he sift the wheat.
2 But God can all his power control,
And gather in his chain;
And, where he seems to triumph most,
The captive soul regain.
3 There is a shepherd kind and strong,
Still watchful for his sheep;
Nor shall the infernal lion rend,
Whom he vouchsafes to keep.
4 Blest Jesus, intercede for us,
That we may fall not more,
O raise us when we prostrate lie,
And comfort lost restore,
5 The secret energy impart,
That faith may never fail;
But, 'midst whole showers of fiery darts,
That temper'd shield prevail.
6 Secur'd ourselves by grace divine,
We'll guard our brethren too;
And, taught their frailty by our own,
Our care of them renew.
Scripture: Luke 22:31-32 Languages: English

Christ's Intercession typified by Aaron's Breastplate
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CLIV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Intercession of Christ; Intercession of Christ Typified by Aaron's breast plate First Line: Now let our cheerful eyes survey Lyrics: 1 Now let our cheerful eyes survey
Our great high priest above,
And celebrate his constant care,
And sympathetic love.
2 Tho' rais'd to a superior throne,
Where angels bow around,
And high o'er all the shining train
With matchless honors crown'd;
3 The names of all his saints he bears,
Deep graven on his heart;
Nor shall the meanest christian say
That he has lost his part.
4 Those characters shall fair abide,
Our everlasting trust,
When gems, and monuments, and crowns
Have moulder'd down to dust.
5 So, gracious savior, on my breast
May thy dear name be worn,
A sacred ornament and guard,
To endless ages borne!
Scripture: Exodus 28:29 Languages: English

Th' ascended savior's love:
Sing how he lives to carry on
His people's cause above.

His humble suit below;
But with authority he asks,
Enthron'd in glory now.
3 For all that come to God by him,
Salvation he demands;
Points to their names upon his breast,
And spreads his wounded hands.
4 His sweet atoning sacrifice,
Gives sanction to his claim:
"Father, I will that all my saints
"Be with me where I am:
5 "By their salvation, recompense
"Th sorrows I endur'd;
"Just to the merits of thy son,
"And faithful to thy word."
6 Eternal life, at his request,
To every saint is given:
Safety on Earth, and, after death,
The plenitude of heaven.
7 [Founded on right, thy prayer avails,
The father smiles on thee;
And now thou in thy kingdom art,
Dear Lord, remember me.
8 Let the much incense of thy prayer
In my behalf ascend;
And as its virtue, so my praise,
Shall never never end.] Scripture: John 17:24 Languages: English

Author: Christopher M. Idle Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #230 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Intercession of Christ; Intercession of Christ 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!

shall our hearts forget his promise,
"I am with you evermore"?

Jesus, my great High Priest
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #144 (1870) Topics: Christ Intercession of; Intercession of Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my great High Priest,
Offered His blood and died;
My guilty conscience seeks
No sacrifice beside.
His powerful blood did once atone,
And now it pleads before the throne.
2 To this dear Surety's hand
Will I commit my cause;
He answers and fulfils
His Father's broken laws.
Behold my soul at freedom set;
My Surety paid the dreadful debt.
3 My Advocate appears
For my defence on high;
The Father bows His ears,
And lays His thunder by.
Not all that hell or sin can say,
Shall turn His heart, His love away.
4 Should all the hosts of death,
And powers of hell unknown,
Put their most dreadful forms
Of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
Superior power and guardian grace. Languages: English
Jesus, my great High Priest
