HYMN 132. (C. M.) The Offices of Christ.

I

We bless the Prophet of the Lord,
That comes with truth and grace;
Jesus, thy Spirit and thy word
Shall lead us in thy ways.

II

We reverence our High Priest above,
Who offer'd up his blood,
And lives to carry on his love,
By pleading with our God.

III

We honour our exalted King,
How sweet are his commands!
He guards our souls from hell and sin
By his almighty hands.

IV

Hosanna to his glorious name,
Who saves by different ways;
His mercies lay a sovereign claim
To our immortal praise.
