WHERE HIGH THE HEAVENLY TEMPLE STANDS

[1]
Where high the heavenly temple stands,
the house of God not made with hands,
a great High Priest our nature wears,
the guardian of mankind appears.

[2]
He who for men their surety stood,
and poured on earth his precious blood,
pursues in heaven his mighty plan,
the saviour and the friend of man.

[3]
Though now ascended up on high,
he bends on earth a brother's eye;
partaker of the human name,
he knows the frailty of our frame.

[4]
Our fellow-sufferer yet retains
a fellow-feeling of our pains;
he sympathizes with our grief
and to the sufferer sends relief.

[5]
With boldness, therefore, at the throne
let us make all our sorrows known;
and ask the aids of heavenly power
to help us in the evil hour.
