[Intro]
[Keys come in]
[Verse 1]
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.
[Verse 2]
When Satan tempts me to despair,
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look, and see him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because a 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
[Bridge]
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One,
Risen Son of God!
[Verse 3]
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, [hold note; birdseye]
With Christ, my Savior and my God
With Christ, my Savior and my God
[Outro]
(2X)
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One,
Risen Son of God!
(slows, instruments drop out)
(2X)
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One,
Risen Son of God!
