With joy we meditate the grace

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 420 hymnals Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace Of our High Priest above; His heart is made of tenderness, It melts with pitying 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 He, in the days of feeble flesh, Poured out His cries and tears, And in His measure feels afresh What every member bears. 4 He'll never quench the smoking flax, But raise it to a flame; The bruisèd reed He never breaks, Nor scorns the meanest name. 5 Then let our humble faith address His mercy and His power; We shall obtain delivering grace In the distressing hour. Amen. Used With Tune: HALLON
