Prelude 18
When everything seems out of hand, I on the firm foundation stand: On Christ, the Rock, whose strength prevails, Whose love and power never fails. 21
Refrain: 22
When overwhelmed my heart — I cry, Lead to the Rock higher than I. 22
I’ve known His saving grace and power, And I can trust Him every hour; I’m sheltered safe within His hand; His promises forever stand. 22
His blood has washed my sins away; His grace preserves me every day: He lives for me to supplicate — My Great High Priest and Advocate. 22
There is a place where I can hide, When troubles press on every side; But oh how quickly I forget, And in distress, struggle and fret. 23
And when I take my eyes from Thee, And sink beneath the raging sea, Recall my heart — and let me fly Back to the Rock, higher than I. 23
Soon all the trials will be past, And I shall reach the goal at last; Beyond the tears and fears and grief, Glorious departing, sweet relief. 23
Refrain: 23
Then I shall praise Him in the sky; Jesus, the Rock, higher than I. 24
Grant me grace, Lord Jesus, Just to rest in Thee; Fix my heart and mind and soul Steadfastly on Thee. 30
Our High Priest: 33
Jesus As Our Advocate: 34
Like Thee, Saviour, in a moment, Changed as on the cloud we meet; Jesus, written on my forehead, Precious name, divine and sweet. 35
Cause my heart, Lord Jesus, With fresh desire to burn; Keep the hope before me Of Thy soon return. 38

2. As Our High Priest 43
3. Having Offered Himself As the Perfect Sacrifice 44
4. As the Object for Faith 44
He has ascended — God is satisfied With His dear Son, who now is at His side; God has exalted — given Him a name, Above all who before or after came. 44
Do We Have a Single Eye? 46
The Master calls, and can I stay When He is beckoning me To follow, serve Him every day, And His disciple be? Oh path of joy, oh sweet employ, It is, my soul, for thee. 47
It is not always what I’d choose; The way is often steep; But if I choose, I can but lose, And even sorrow reap; He knoweth best; in this I rest, And follow as His sheep. 47
Yes, His “Well done” in that bright day Will make it all worthwhile; All thought of loss will fade away, Forgotten every trial; He’ll call me home, no more to roam, Will welcome with His smile. 48
When He comes, I shall behold Him, Face to face, no longer sight dim; Nor in part — I’ll fully know Him; Know as now I’m known. 56
A company innumerable, Arrayed in spotless white, Will praise the Lamb, before the throne, In yonder courts of light. 57
And I a part of that vast throng — By sovereign grace and love — Will join in the eternal song, With all the saints above. 57
There in that home, forever to enjoy Himself unhindered, nothing to annoy; No cloud to hide; all, all is heavenly light; Nothing to mar or spoil or dim our sight. 59
Our occupation through eternal days, That blessed Person upon whom we’ll gaze; Our eyes forever fixed upon His face, Our hearts know fully all His love and grace. 59
Perhaps today, perhaps this hour, We’ll leave this scene of care; What joy, what peace, what rest awaits, In regions bright and fair. 61
Satisfied will be His heart, And satisfied we’ll be as well; For we shall never from Him part, But with the Lord forever dwell; What songs of joy, what notes of praise, Will sound through heaven for endless days. 62
His heart will ne’er be satisfied, Until He has us there; With Him, like Him, in robes of white, In regions bright and fair. 64
He’ll see the travail of His soul, Triumphantly declare, That we’ll forever with Him reign, In regions bright and fair. 64
Oh fix our earnest gaze So wholly, Lord, on Thee, That, with Thy beauty occupied, We elsewhere none may see. Hymn #174, Little Flock Hymnbook 65
Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face; And the things of earth will grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace. Hymn #375, Echoes of Grace Hymnbook 66
