Jesus, in Thee Our Eyes Behold

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3349 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Jesus, in Thee our eyes behold A thousand glories more, Than the rich gems and polished gold The sons of Aaron wore. 2. They first their own burnt offerings brought, To purge themselves from sin; Thy life was pure without a spot, And all Thy nature clean. 3. Fresh blood as constant as the day Was on their altar spilt; But Thy one offering takes away For ever all our guilt. 4. Their priesthood ran through several hands, For mortal was their race; Thy never changing office stands Eternal as Thy days. 5. Once in the circuit of a year, With blood, but not his own, Aaron within the veil appears Before the golden throne: 6. But Christ, by His own powerful blood, Ascends above the skies, And in the presence of our God Shows His own sacrifice. 7. Jesus, the King of glory, reigns On Zion’s heav’nly hill; Looks like a lamb that has been slain, And wears His priesthood still. 8. He ever lives to intercede Before His Father’s face: Give Him, my soul, thy cause to plead, Nor doubt the Father’s grace. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN

Jesus, in Thee our Eyes behold

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXLV (1766) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, in Thee our Eyes behold A Thousand Glories more Than the rich Gems and polish'd Gold The Sons of Aaron wore. 2 They first their own Burnt-off'rings brought, To purge themselves from Sin; Thy Life was pure, without a Spot, And all thy Nature clean. [3 Fresh Blood, as constant as the Day, Was on their Altar spilt; But thy one Off'ring takes away For ever all our Guilt.] [4 Their Priesthood ran through sev'ral Hands, For Mortal was their Race; Thy never-changing Office Stands, Eternal as thy Days.] [5 Once in the Circuit of a Year, With Blood, but not his own, Aaron within the Vale appears, Before the Golden Throne: 6 But Christ, by his own pow'rful Blood, Ascends above the Skies, And in the Presence of our God, Shews his own Sacrifice.] 7 Jesus, the King of Glory, reigns On Sion's heav'nly Hill; Looks like a Lamb that has been slain, And wears his Priesthood still. 8 He ever lives to intercede Before his Father's Face: Give him, my Soul, thy Cause to plead, Nor doubt the Father's Grace.
