See Jesus, our glorious High Priest
Chosen by God, that we might draw near
Anointed as our King and our Priest
By faith we follow with rev’rent fear

Fast, Fast, Hold fast
Hold fast to Jesus the Better One
Near, Near, Draw Near
Draw near to God through His only Son
Through suffering, He learned to obey
Each time He won against temptation
He knows the struggle we face each day
And won our eternal salvation
