Priesthood and Perfections of Christ. Exod. 28. 29

1 Christ bears the names of all his saints,
  Deep on his heart engraved;
  Attentive to the state and wants
  Of all his love has saved.

2 In him a holiness complete,
  Light, and perfection shine;
  And wisdom, grace, and glory meet;
  A Saviour all divine.

3 The blood, which, as a priest, he bears
  For sinners, is his own;
  The incense of his prayers and tears
  Perfumes the holy throne.

4 In him my weary soul has rest,
  Though I am weak and vile;
  I read my name upon his breast,
  And see the Father smile.
