Before the throne of God


    • Before the throne of God above, 
    • I have a strong, a 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 Saviour died, 
    • My sinful soul is counted free; 
    • For God the Just is saThisfied 
    • To look on Him and pardon me, 
    • To look on Him and pardon me. 

    • 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 with His blood; 
    • My life is hid with Christ on high, 
    • With Christ, my Saviour and my God, 
    • With Christ my Saviour and my God
