The Creed

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H7.III (1789) Topics: Heidelberg Catechism Lord's Day 7 First Line: In God the Father I believe Lyrics: 12 In God the Father I believe, Who heav'n and earth did frame, By his almighty word; his [raise And glory to proclaim. 13 With firmest confidence my soul Depends on him alone; For he my God and FatherR is, Through Jesus Christ his Son, 14 His holy Providence upholds, And rules supreme o'er all; I therefore will rejoice in him, Whatever doth befall. 15 I do believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, Begotten from eternity, The everlasting word. 16 Who was conceived by the pow'r Of God the Holy Ghost; And of the virgin Nary born, To save that which was lost. 17 He under Pilate's tyranny, To shame and death was doom'd; Was crucifi'd; to prove his death, He also was entomb'd. 18 The wrath of an offended God On him, our surety, fell; In soul distress, he, as it were, Descended into hell. 19 He rose the third day from the grave, A mighty conqueror, O'er sin, death, hell, and all his foes, And lives for evermore. 20 He into heav'n, most gloriously, In triumph, did ascend; To plead our cause; his church to bless, He sits at God's right hand. 21 From whence he shall appear again, In splendid majesty, To judge the world in righteousness, His saints to glorify. 22 I in the Holy Ghost believe, A person real, and one In essence, pow'r, eternity, With Father and with Son. 23 An holy cath'lic church I own, The heirs of heav'n design'd; By union one to Christ their head, And one another join'd. 24 Redemption, through the blood of Christ, I heartily embrace; Ev'n the forgiveness of my sins, The gift of sov'reign grace. 25 The resurrection of the dead, Sincerely I maintain; My soul and body glorifi'd, With Christ shall live and reign. 26 The hopes of everlasting life, My fainting soul sustain; Let God for ever be ador'd, let all men say, Amen! 27 To Father, Son and Holy Ghost The God whom we adore, Be glory, as it was, is now, And shall be evermore.

The one Sacrifice of Christ

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H30 (1789) Topics: Heidelberg Catechism Lord's Day 30 First Line: Jesus, in thee our eyes behold 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 thro' 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 with the vail 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 Shows his own sacrifice. 7 Jesus, the King of glory, reigns On Sion's heav'nly hill; He ever lives who once was slain, And wears his priesthood still.

'tis a word divine; For, Lord, I plainly see, Had not thy choice prevented mine, I ne'er had chosen thee. 18 For perseverance, strength I've none; But would on this depend, That, Jesus, having lov'd his own, Will love them to the end. 19 Empty and bare, I come to thee For righteousness divine; O may thy glorious merits be, By imputation, mine. 20 Free grace alone can wipe the tears From my lamenting eyes; And raise my soul, from guilty fears, To joy that never dies. 21 Free grace can death itself out-brave, And take the sting away; Can sinners to the utmost save, And give them victory.

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H23 (1789) Topics: Heidelberg Catechism Lord's Day 23 First Line: Lord, thy imputed righteousness Lyrics: 1 Lord, thy imputed righteousness My beauty is, my glorious dress; 'Midst flaming worlds in this array'd, With joy shall I lift up my head. 2 When from the dust of death I rise, To take my mansion in the skies, E'en then shall this be all my plea, "Jesus hath liv'd and dy'd for me." 3 Bold shall I stand in that great day, For who aught to my charge shall lay? While thro' thy blood absolv'd I am, From sin's tremendous curse and shame. 4 Thus Abraham the friend of God, Thus all the armies bought with blood, By faith on thee alone relied, And in the Lord were justified. 5 This spotless robe the same appears When ruin'd nature sinks in years: No age can change its glorious hue, The robe of Christ is ever new. 6 O! let the dead now hear thy voice! Bid, Lord, thy mourning ones rejoice; Their beauty this, their glorious dress, "Jesus, the Lord our righteousness." Languages: English
