"Aaron... blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people" (Leviticus 9:23). "By this I know that Thou favorest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me" (Psalm 41:11). "We see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death... that through death He might destroy... the devil... that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people" (Hebrew 2:9-17).
The glory of the
Lord appeared
To all the
people Aaron blessed.
This was the
prospect Satan feared
That Christ our
Priest would manifest.
By this we know
we have God's favor,
Because our
enemy has failed
To triumph over
Christ our Savior,
Our great High
Priest who has prevailed!
Beholding Jesus,
we can see
The Lamb of God
to slaughter led.
Through death He
won the victory
And thereby
crushed the serpent's head.
O Lord, our Lamb
and our High Priest,
Our hearts are
rightly overjoyed
As captives whom
You have released
Because the
devil is destroyed.
