11.11.11.11
With refrain (6.6.6.6.11.11)
O Christ who attained the most excellent name,
Melchizedek’s priesthood is your role to claim.
The ruler of righteousness, justice, and peace,
Your kingdom and priesthood shall ever increase.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Sacrificed once for all!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Unto Christ give your all!
For Jesus is highest, and greatest, and best,
O’er angels and priesthood and Israel’s rest.
All those who draw near to the Father through you
Are saved to the end through your prayers ever new.
Our High Priest eternal, you always shall stand
And make intercession at Yahweh’s right hand.
O Christ you are holy and separate from sin,
Exalted o’er heaven and spotless within.
Appointed through promise as God’s holy one –
Our High Priest forever – the perfected son.
