Samuel J. Stone (1866) • English

Primary Scripture: Hebrews 5:9-10

Verse 1

For ev'ry soul in ev'ry need He ever lives to intercede, Presenting there within the veil A sacrifice that cannot fail.

Verse 2

Our heav'nly great High Priest, he stands: By pierced feet, and pierced hands, By bleeding brow and wounded side, He lives to plead for whom he died!

Verse 3

Whom have we, Lord, in Heav'n but thee? Like ships safe moored on stormy sea Our souls in peril, with thee there Find anchorage of hope and prayer.

Verse 4

Set loose from Earth, and evermore Fast bound to that eternal shore, So all our life and love shall be Ascended Master, hid with thee.
