Psalm
99 Prayed
Worshiping our Priest, King Jesus
Lord Jesus, you reign,
let
the nations tremble;
you sit enthroned between the
cherubim,
let
the earth shake.
Lord Jesus, you are great in
your Church;
you
are exalted over all the nations.
Let them praise your great and
awesome name—
you
are holy.
King Jesus, you are mighty, you
love justice—
you
have established equity;
in the Church you have done
what
is just and right.
We exalt you, Lord Jesus our
God,
and
worship at your footstool;
you
are holy.
Moses and Aaron were among your
priests,
Samuel
was among those who called on your
name;
they called on the Lord
and
you answered them.
You spoke to them from the
pillar of cloud;
they
kept your statutes and the decrees you
gave
them.
But you have been found worthy
of greater honour
than
Moses,
just
as the builder of a house has greater
honour
than the house itself.
For
every house is built by someone,
but
God is the builder of everything.
Moses
was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,
But
you are faithful as a Son over God’s
house,
O Christ.
And we are your house, if we
hold on to our
courage
and the hope of which we boast.
O Lord Jesus our God,
you
answered them,
for you were to Israel a
forgiving God,
though
you punished their misdeeds.
So who is he that condemns?
Christ
Jesus, you died—
more than that, you were raised
to life—
you
are at the right hand of God
and
are also interceding for us.
Since we have you as a great
high priest
who
has gone through the heavens,
Jesus,
O Son of God,
help
us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
For with you, we do not have a
high priest who is
unable
to sympathize with our weaknesses,
but
we have one who has been tempted in
every
way, just as we are—
yet
was without sin.
Help us then approach the
throne of grace with
confidence,
so
that we may receive mercy
and
find grace to help us in our time of need.
We exalt you Lord Jesus our God
and
worship at your holy mountain,
for
you, Lord Jesus our God, are holy.
