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 Savior and the Friend of man.
3
In every pang that rends the heart
The Man of Sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
4
With boldness therefore at the throne
Let us make all our sorrows known,
And ask the aid of heavenly power,
To help us in the evil hour.
