Symbolism of Melchizedek and the Priesthood

“Men I shall anoint for service;

Men to serve as Priests.

They shall perform such sacrifices;

Slaying offering beasts.

The King of Salem Abraham meets;

A king who serves My Temple.

This great and priestly forerunner,

Melchizedek; priestly example.

He is a portrait of Thee, My Son:

The forever Priest of Priests;

 Offering up the Life-Blood

For the greatest and the least!

Thou art the Eternal Mediator;

Thy blood possess power increased.

I, Giver of Life, will cleanse all.

My love has never ceased.”
