| Before the throne of God above
|
| I have a strong and perfect plea:
|
| A great High Priest, whose name is Love,
|
| Who ever lives and pleads for me.
|
| My name is graven on His hands,
|
| My name is written on His heart;
|
| I know that while in heaven He stands
|
| No tongue can bid me thence depart
|
| No tongue can bid me thence depart.
|
| When Satan tempts me to despair,
|
| And tells me of the guilt within,
|
| Upward I look, and see Him there
|
| Who made an end to all my sin.
|
| Because the sinless Savior died,
|
| My sinful soul is counted free;
|
| For God the just is satisfied
|
| To look on Him and pardon me To look on Him and pardon me Hallelujah! |
| Hallelujah! |
| Praise the One,
|
| Risen Son of God!
|
| Behold Him there, the Risen Lamb
|
| My perfect, spotless righteousness,
|
| The great unchangeable I am,
|
| The King of glory and of grace!
|
| One with Himself I cannot die
|
| My soul is purchased by His blood
|
| My life is hid with Christ on high,
|
| With Christ, my Savior and my God
|
| With Christ, my Savior and my God |
