The Glorious Gospel. Heb. 9. 24-28; 1 Tim. 1. 11

1 What wisdom, majesty, and grace
  Through all the gospel shine!
  ’Tis God that speaks, and we confess
  The doctrine most divine.

2 Down from his shining throne on high
  The Almighty Saviour comes,
  Lays his bright robes of glory by,
  And feeble flesh assumes.

3 The mighty debt his chosen owed
  Upon the cross he pays;
  Then through the clouds ascends to God,
  ’Midst shouts of loftiest praise.

4 There he, our great High Priest, appears
  Before his Father’s throne;
  There on his breast our names he wears,
  And counts our cause his own.
