HEBREWS – Once For All by Bro H
Verse 1 — The Shadow and Reminder (Hebrews 10:1–3) The law was a shadow of the things to come Not the image, not the finished work done Year by year the offerings stood Never making the conscience good For if they cleansed, they would have ceased But still returned the same old priest A reminder made again each year Of sin that still was standing near Verse 2 — The Standing Priest (Hebrews 7:23 / 10:11) Many priests because they could not remain Death would take them again and again Standing daily, the work goes on Offering still, but the sin not gone Blood of bulls and goats could not remove Only pointing to what would prove Something greater must now be shown A better Priest upon the throne Chorus Once for all, the blood was given Not again—the veil is riven One High Priest forever stands We draw near with open hands No more offering left for sin Law now written deep within Hold fast, do not turn away He has made the living way Verse 3 — The Better Priest (Hebrews 7:16–27) Not by law of fleshly descent But by power no death could prevent You are a Priest forever declared After MelchiZedek, oath was sworn there Holy, undefiled, set apart No more offering day by day required Once He offered up Himself Sat down— and the ordinances expired Verse 4 — The New Covenant (Hebrews 8:10 / 10:16–18) “I will write My law within their mind On their hearts it is inscribed I’ll be their God, they’ll be My own And they shall be My people” They shall not teach each man his brother Saying, “Know the Lord” to one another For they shall all know Me within And their sins I remember not again Verse 5 — Draw Near and Hold Fast (Hebrews 10:19–25 / 13:15) So draw near with a heart made true Full assurance now belongs to you Through the veil, His flesh, the way Into the holiest place today Hold fast, let your hope remain He is faithful, He does not change Offer praise—the fruit of lips Do not forsake the fellowship Chorus (Repeat) Once for all, the blood was given Not again—the veil is riven One High Priest forever stands We draw near with open hands No more offering left for sin Law now written deep within Hold fast, do not turn away He has made the living way Bridge (Hebrews 9:12 / 10:26–27 tension) Entered once, eternal redemption Not by another repetition If we turn and reject the way No sacrifice remains that day So come boldly, stand and remain Do not return to the former chain Outro (Hebrews 10:23–24) Hold fast, do not let it go Consider one another so Stir to love, to works that stand Till we inherit what was planned
