Hebrews 10:1-22
-
[Heb 10:4] Not All The Blood Of Beasts
Not all the blood of beasts
On Jewish altars slain
Could give the guilty conscience peace
Or wash away the stain.But Christ, the heav’nly Lamb,
Takes all our sins away;
A sacrifice of nobler name
And richer blood than they.My faith would lay her hand
On that dear head of Thine,
While, like a penitent, I stand,
And there confess my sin.My soul looks back to see
The burdens Thou didst bear
When hanging on the cursèd tree,
And hopes her guilt was there.Believing, we rejoice
To see the curse remove;
We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing His bleeding love.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:4] O Thou Whose Offering On The Tree
O Thou whose offering on the tree
The legal offerings all foreshowed,
Borrowed their whole effect from Thee,
And drew their virtue from Thy blood.The blood of goats and bullocks slain,
Could never for one sin atone;
To purge the guilty offerer’s stain,
Thine was the work, and Thine alone.Vain in themselves their duties were,
Their services could never please,
Till joined with Thine, and made to share
The merits of Thy righteousness.Forward they cast a faithful look
On Thy approaching sacrifice;
And thence their pleasing savor took,
And rose accepted in the skies.These feeble types and shadows old,
Are all in Thee, the Truth, fulfilled;
We in Thy sacrifice behold
The substance of those rites revealed.Thy meritorious sufferings past,
We see by faith to us brought back;
And, on Thy grand oblation cast,
Its saving benefits partake.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:10] Once, Only Once
Once, only once, and once for all,
His precious life He gave;
Before the cross in faith we fall,
And own it strong to save.“One off’ring, single and complete,”
With lips and hearts we say;
But what He never can repeat
He shows forth day by day.For as the priest of Aaron’s line
Within the holiest stood,
And sprinkled all the mercy shrine
With sacrificial blood;So He, who once atonement wrought,
Our Priest of endless power,
Presents Himself for those He bought
In that dark noontide hour.His manhood pleads where now it lives
On heaven’s eternal throne,
And where in mystic rite He gives
Its presence to His own.And so we show Thy death, O Lord,
Till Thou again appear,
And feel, when we approach Thy board,
We have an altar here.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:10] True Messiah Now Appears, The
The true Messiah now appears,
The types are all withdrawn;
So fly the shadows and the stars
Before the rising dawn.No smoking sweets, nor bleeding lambs,
Nor kid nor bullock slain;
Incense and spice of costly names
Would all be burnt in vain.Aaron must lay his robes away,
His miter and his vest,
When God Himself comes down to be
The offering and the priest.He took our mortal flesh to show
The wonders of His love;
For us He paid His life below,
And prays for us above.“Father,” He cries, “forgive their sins,
For I Myself have died”;
And then He shows His opened veins
And pleads His wounded side.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:12] Come, All Harmonious Tongues
Come, all harmonious tongues,
Your noblest music bring;
’Tis Christ the everlasting God,
And Christ the man, we sing.
Tell how He took our flesh,
To take away our guilt;
Sing the dear drops of sacred blood
That hellish monsters spilt.Alas! the cruel spear
Went deep into His side,
And the rich flood of purple gore
Their murderous weapons dyed.
The waves of swelling grief
Did o’er His bosom roll,
And mountains of almighty wrath
Lay heavy on His soul.Down to the shades of death
He bowed His smitten head;
Yet He arose to live and reign
When death itself is dead.
No more the bloody spear,
The cross and nails no more;
For hell itself shakes at His Name,
And all the heav’ns adore.There the Redeemer sits
High on the Father’s throne;
The Father lays His vengeance by,
And smiles upon His Son.
There His full glories shine
With uncreated rays,
And bless His saints and angels’ eyes
To everlasting days.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:14] When O’er My Sins I Sorrow
When o’er my sins I sorrow,
Lord, I will look to Thee
And hence my comfort borrow
That Thou wast slain for me;
Yea, Lord, Thy precious blood was spilt
For me, O most unworthy,
To take away my guilt.Oh, what a marvelous offering!
Behold, the Master spares
His servants, and their suffering
And grief for them He bears.
God stoopeth from His throne on high;
For me, His guilty creature,
He deigns as man to die.My manifold transgression
Henceforth can harm me none
Since Jesus’ bloody Passion
For me God’s grace hath won.
His precious blood my debts hath paid;
Of hell and all its torments
I am no more afraid.Therefore I will forever
Give glory unto Thee,
O Jesus, loving Savior,
For what Thou didst for me.
I’ll spend my breath in songs of thanks
For Thy sad cry, Thy sufferings,
Thy wrongs, Thy guiltless death.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Heb 10:21] Blessed Assurance
Blessèd assurance, Jesus is mine!
O what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.Refrain
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long.Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.Refrain
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Savior am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.Refrain

[Heb 10:22] I Am Thine, O Lord
I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessèd Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessèd Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.Refrain
O the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!Refrain
There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.Refrain

[Heb 10:22] Since We Have Confidence
Since we have confidence to come to God,
Since Jesus made a way by His own blood,
Since He the veil did tear,
A living way made clear,
Our great High Priest is e’er,
Let us draw near.Let us draw near to God, let us draw near;
With all sincerity, let us draw near.
Fully assured in faith,
With hearts cleansed by His grace,
All guilt and sin erased,
Let us draw near.Let us hold to our hope, let us e’er hope,
In God’s salvation great, let us e’er hope.
God’s promises are true;
He’s always faithful, too;
What He has said, He’ll do;
Let us e’er hope.Let us spur others on, let us spur on;
Let us consider how we may spur on.
Let us urge others to
Show love in all they do,
And good deeds e’er pursue;
Let us spur on.Let us keep meeting e’er, let us still meet;
Till Christ returns one day, let us still meet.
Let us encourage e’er,
Christ’s soon return declare,
Till we His glory share,
Let us still meet.Play source: Cyberhymnal
