High Priest for sinners, Jesus, Lord

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #71 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Prayers, our Saviour's Lyrics: High Priest for sinners, Jesus, Lord! Whom as a Man of Griefs I see Thy prayers on earth, while I record, If still in heaven Thou pray'st for me, My soul, for thy soul's travail claim, I seek salvation in Thy name. Baptized as for the dead He rose, With prayer from Jordan's hallow'd flood, Ere long by persecuting foes, To be baptized in His own blood, The Father's voice proclaim'd the Son, The spirit witness'd--These are One. Early He rose, ere dawn of day, And to a desert place withdrew; 76 There was He wont to watch and pray, Until His locks were wet with dew, And birds below, and beams above, Had warn'd Him thence to works of love. At evening, when His toils were o'er, He sent the multitudes away, And on the mountain or the shore, All night remain'd to watch and pray, Till o'er His head the stars grew dim, When was the hour of rest for Him? In field or city, while He taught, Oft went His spirit forth in sighs; And when His mightiest deeds were wrought, To heaven he lifted up His eyes: He pray'd at Lazarus' grave and shed Tears with the word that waked the dead. When mothers brought their babes, He took The lambs into His arms, and pray'd; On Tabor, His transfigured look, While praying, turn'd the sun to shade, And forms, too pure for human sight, Grew visible amidst that light. "O Father! save me from this hour, Yet for this hour to earth I came," He pray'd in weakness; then, with power Cried, "Father! glorify Thy name;" --"I have," a voice from heaven replied, "And still it shall be glorified." 77 For Peter, bold in speech and brave In act, yet in temptation frail, (As once he proved when on the wave), Christ pray'd lest his weak faith should fail; And when by Satan's snare enthrall'd, His eye the wanderer recall'd. Amidst His mournful family, Who soon must see His face no more, With what divine discourse did He Strength to their fainting souls restore! Then pray'd for all His people,--where Have words recorded such a prayer? Next, with strong cries and bitter tears, Thrice hallow'd He that doleful ground, Where, trembling with mysterious fears, His sweat, like blood-drops, fell around, And, being in an agony, He prayed yet more earnestly. Here oft in spirit let me, kneel, Share in the speechless griefs I see, And, while He felt what I should feel, Feel all His power of love to me, Break my hard heart, and grace supply For Him, who died for me, to die. Stretch'd on the ignominious tree, For those, whose hands had nail'd Him there, 78 Who stood and mock'd His misery, He offer'd up his latest prayer; Then with the voice of victory cried, "Tis finish'd!" bow'd His head, and died. There all His prayers were answer'd;--all The fruits of His soul's travail gain'd; The cup of wormwood and of gall, Down to the dregs His lips had drain'd; Accomplish'd was the Eternal plan, He tasted death for every man. Now by the throne of God He stands, Aloft the golden censer bears, And offers, with high priestly hands, Pure incense with his people's prayers; Well pleased the Father eyes, the Son, And says to each request, "Tis done."

Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXXIX (1767) Topics: Prayers Of the Church Particularly of Believers when offended at the Prosperity of the Wicked; Prayers When percecuted; Prayers When sick; Prayers Of a Sinner to obtain Forgiveness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways, I strove to keep my Tongue in Awe; And curb'd with Care, my hasty Words, When I the prosp'rous wicked saw; From good Discourse I did refrain, But that increas'd my inward Pain. 2 My Heart did glow, which working Thoughts, Did in my Bosom restless make; And warm Reflection fann'd the Fire, 'Till with my Tongue at last I spake: And thus with eager Zeal express'd, The Thought that labor'd in my Breast. 3 LORD, let me know my Term of Days, And show how soon my Life will end; The num'rous Train of Ills disclose, Which still on this frail State attend: A Span will measure all my Years, My Life but Vanity appears. 4 Man, like a Shadow, vainly walks, With fruitless Cares opprest; He heaps up Wealth, but cannot tell, By whom 'twill be possess'd' Why should I then on Toys attend, My Hopes on thee shall still depend. Part II 5 Forgive my Sins, nor let me scorn'd, By proud disdainful Sinners, be; I silent was, and murmur'd not, Because I saw 'twas done by thee. The Burden of thy Wrath remove, Lest my frail Flesh too weak should prove. 6 For when thou chast'nest Man for Sin, Thou mak'st his Beauty soon to fade; It wastes away ev'n like a Cloth, That is by fretting Moths decay'd: So vain in ev'ry earthly Joy, And Life itself is but a Toy. 7 LORD, hear my Cry, accept my Tears, And listen to my humble Pray'r, Who sojourn like a Stranger here, As all my Fore-fathers likewise were. Oh spare me, and my Strength restore, Before I shall be seen no more! Scripture: Psalm 39 Languages: English Tune Title: [Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways]
