A Good High Priest Is Come
Gospel

Lyrics
A good High Priest is come,
supplying Aaron's place,
and taking up his room,
dispensing life and grace;
the law by Aaron's priesthood came,
but grace and truth by Jesus' name.
He died, but lives again,
and by the throne He stands,
there shows how He was slain,
opening His piercèd hands;
our Priest abides and pleads the cause
of us who have transgressed His laws.
I other priests disclaim,
and laws and off'rings too;
none but the bleeding Lamb
the mighty work can do;
He shall have all the praise: for He
has loved, and died, and lives for me.
